Be It Triumph Or Torment Poem by Bipasha Dutt

Be It Triumph Or Torment

Rating: 4.5


Sometimes, life is a gentle river
That nourishes forever
And sometimes like torrential rain,
Causing havoc and pain.

Sometimes, life is a soft breeze
That helps to soothe and please
And sometimes like violent twister,
Triggering immense disaster.

Sometimes, life is a flame of candle
That is easy to handle
And sometimes like massive wildfire,
Turning into a funeral pyre.

Be it triumph or torment,
May life's experiences lead to enlightenment.

Hi Bipasha, Lovely poem. A little philosophical as an afterthought. But while reading the poem, one is carried away by the wonderful narrative. Life has its ups and downs. But, every day, every up or down carries a lesson, which one should try and learn. This would make our life worthwhile.
