From Dust We Come To Dust We Go Poem by Neela Nath Das

This body will perish must!
From air to air, from dust to dust
Or water to water.
Yet we fight
For our right to win the flesh, the buck and power.
But, nothing will remain,
Neighbors will laugh at my folly
In my absence,
Because I was silly
Committing the same mistake
Knowing nothing remains,
Everybody will from ash to ashes.
From dust to dust....
From fire we come,
Remain in water
Stay in fire and turn to ash.
From dust we come, to dust we go.
