LIFE I

THIS WAS HAND WRITTEN IN 1983 AT HOTEL TTDC COIMBATORE
AFTER ATTENDING THE  SANDOZ TEAM MEETING
TAMIL NADU,INDIA

LIFE IS LIKE A LAMP,
OIL THE ENERGY , CAUSING  THE  GLOW ;
BABE , BOY  ,  YOUTH ,THEN  FAMILY  ,
OLDAGE  AND  DEATH ,
REMINDS  THE  GROWTH  IN  STAGES ;
FULL  LIGHT  IN  YOUTH  AND  FAMILY ,
END  OF  LIFE , AKIN TO THE FLICKERS OF THE LAMP ,
OH !! IS  THIS  LIFE TO END  SIMPLY ??
SIMPLY ,WITHOUT  USE  TO THE FELLOWS NEXT ???
IN  THAT , I SHALL  HAVE  A  LIFE, ONCE MORE ,
FOR  THE "CAUSE" , LEFT  UNDONE !!!
PRECISELY , TO  SERVE  THE  POOR ,  NEEDY ,
BESIDES , THE  INNOCENT SOULS  CRYING  ALONE  ,
MOSTLY  BY  SERVICE  AND  PRAYERS ,
PROVIDENCE WILLING AND BLESSING AND SHOWERING ,
FEEDING THEM  FULL  , NURSING THEM  FULL,
BY  LETTERS ** AND  FOOD  , SERVED FOREVER.
