Rebirth
Man's arduous journey comes to
halt many times,
Many deaths are endured before
the last one,
His works are leveled to ground
by chance,
Dissolution sets in with the
force of life.
Nature and world pound on the
fine substance of man,
Frustrating his efforts and
wrecking his plans,
Disturbing his rhythm and breaking
his will.
Man's splendid but fragile system
Is geared for a natural, fair,
and consistent treatment,
But it is smothered by inhumanity,
jolted by unfairness, and distracted by
noise.
Man's nature needs recognition
and encouragement,
Love and comfort,
Success and sympathy.
Many ambitions dissolve into
unrealizable dreams,
Many efforts end in dead-end
failures,
Many hopes sink into hopelessness
under the ponderous weight of reality.
Defeats are transformed by time
to benignly haunting memories,
Dissolutions are followed by
rebirths,
The journey of life resumes
with feverish pace,
Life sustains many a death.
