Life is in charms abound
in the lilts of transience
But its trial in pursuit of eternal
existence
But for its ideals of excellence
But for its goals of eminence
That lives ever to conquer time-power flow
That means to
shine brightly in the celestial glow
Dews strewn on the
blades of lush green grass
In quest of embrace with sunrays in moss
They shine like stars to twinkle
And like pearls only to sparkle
But
gleams to shatter all glooms temporal
Eventually trickle
down to prove all ephemeral
Flowers in bloom
on boughs in time endless stream
Fondly satiate soon their long cherished
dream
Only to sprinkle their all fragrance
Only to purvey their nectar-essence
For all but fall on their own on the dear
earth;
Perish to break the
ties of all near and dear for mirth;
