Nuggets Of Wisdom- 11- On Life Comments

hi, valsa! it's been a while since i visited your poems, but you came to mind this morning, and this is the first one i've read. to your closing line, i say amen. reading this poem, i think of my poems " ode to now" and " for the moment, " and " island chain" in which i relate the experiences with my wife that stand out from the rest. hoping this finds you well, glen

exactly wrote the stanza - Thus our life slips away in uncertainty Sometimes splashed in cheer and built in hope Sometimes shattered in agony and lost in longing But life shouldn't be wasted away pining for what's not //// yeah;

Like you have so wonderfully penned in this 'Nuggets of wisdom', life is like a drama. Do your very best to make life graceful. Once the curtains are drawn, no more time to rectify your mistakes. Beautiful Poem dear Valsa! .........10

" All the world's a stage And all the men and women merely players" These lines are always embedded in my mind. As a dancer on stage for over forty years of my life, i have experienced both joy and agony. As long as i am on stage dancing, everything is joyful and beautiful but the moment you get off the stage life becomes a harsh reality.

I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE EVER READ ME MOMS SMILES MAYBE BUT I COMPOSE POETRY IN DREAMS MAINY AND IF I GET UP WELL AND QUICLY I PUT IT INTO BLACK AND WHITE THEN REFINE IT LAST NIGHT I COMPOSED ONE ON VALSA JI DO'T KNOW HOW AND WHY BUT NOW I AM READING UR POETRY YOU ARE A GREATER POET INDEED I MAY a smaller one be LE ME RECALL MY MEMORY AND RECOMPOSE WHAT I REMBER OF THE POETIC NIGHT VALSA Ma'am

Yes. It seems only we humans are lucky enough to be dragged half-cognizant, like a water skier with rope noosed around neck, slowly choking- while our drunken boat captain, who pays no attention to us, is obviously " lost at sea." The human condition is a divine comedy...except if you're human!

The cycle of life, life's ups and downs and the many intricacies of life have been magnificently conveyed. Liked.the last stanza. A highly motivational thought that is so very true. A beautifully crafted and well executed write.

A wonderful, insightful and inspiring poem. imbued with wisdom. Each and every stanza conveys words that gives knowledge and serve as a.guiding light towards the path of life.

Life is a play to short for second acts, its best to savour it on the go. This nugget of wisdom is a treasure trove of truths, the last stanza is the grand finale of a wonderful closing. Too soon this little life will be ‘rounded with a sleep' And when our stage is curtained, with the play over All that left is how well we donned our roles So act out with grace, whatever role you are assigned! an epitaph for life.

A wonderful poem Valsa! Thanks

All the men and women are players in the stage of world. Our life slips away in uncertainty building many hopes and beautiful memories. Sometimes life feels pain too. Soon this little life will be ‘rounded with a sleep as death is truth after birth. By God's grace we should actively play our roles. An important message is transferred through this excellent poem.10

Very interesting to read without a stop anywhere...'All that left is how well we donned our roles' and how well we carried on ourselves in that role...excellent Valsa

Shakespeare’s poetry (16th century) is still received as endearingly as it was perceived then! I would quote your fourth stanza that articulates the reality of life: “Thus our life slips away in uncertainty/Sometimes splashed in cheer and built in hope/Sometimes shattered in agonies and lost in longing/But life shouldn't be wasted away pining for what's not”…alluring depiction of life evincing the reality! A great poem!
