LIFE’S ETERNAL STORY Enough has been said Too much, indeed—no more-- The river of words has gone dry All past words and deeds have been washed ashore. Who then is the victor? And who is the vanquished? Even the mightiest and strongest Have kissed the dust and into oblivion vanished. Some say: life is a cheat and a thief Others say: it is a sweet song Yet there are others who are indifferent Who then is right and who is wrong? One sage says: This is the way Another derides Ideological clashes never go away. The poor have hope The rich have fear Who is happier- What in life should one hold most dear? Who are the foolish And who are the wise?-tell me Who is the judge? But none is the authority.
