LIFE RACE

CHAPTER 1...

Verse 1:

Life is a race, involves you and I.
Life is a race with race's faces.
Racing is survival of the fittest.

Life…a cunning race, unpredictable
A race for the able minds
A magic race for the fast, focused and furious.
Better than the best is essentialspectators loves to cheer.
 

Verse 2:


Life is a stage race
Some run the 100 metres
ephemeral it is... 
for the achieved and unachieved
All are in this race.
Although you live it short,
Once achieved! You get reckoned with.
Otherwise! You are left alone all by yourself;                        in your wildest dream, you wonder away
We call it the100metre life race.

That magic moment!
Fast as the speed of light. Earlier the better
Abracadabra!✨ like a flash
Bolt to the finish line.
As the memories of greatness never fade.
So is the memory to memorize for years.
Alas! As we party the moment, comes "the keeper"; lifeless but powerful.

What is it? Why are you here?
Why should it be now?
Can you spare a little more time?
Allow us enjoy the moment…haba!
NO! the "keeper" replied,
I am the whistle-blower, and the race is over.
The Life is mine… oh!
In agony we ponder, wondering… What a LIFE!
 Our flower withers...


Verse 3:

Life is a stage race
Call it the 400metre race
You’ll almost think the keeper lost his watch.
Only to find out... 
A life of strife, hustle and bustle.
A race for the strong and rugged
Here...You’ll need the help of Mr. Endurance
Only if you can push to the end; the crown is yours.

Spectators say; it’s a long boring race
Yet, filled with much enthusiast
Anxiety makes it more frustrating
The last lap is the determinant
Remember there’s only one goal,
It's the finish Line!

 

Verse 4:

Anticipations high…keep going!
Of high hopes; keep hoping!

Struggling to finish is taskful
Remember…unlike the 100 metre racers; You can't win young
Only in shrinkage, when the bones are weak...              Cross the line to victory.
Catch your breath…enjoy the moment.
Hope it lasts forever... 
At sunsets! You need a nap
Relishing with much experience
 Iconic experience, generations look upto.

After all…comes the keeper
The inevitable whistle blower
O vulnerable racer…give to keeper what belongs to keeper.
Now the race is over…take a bow
Alas! The end justified the means
The fugitive gave it all
Sleeps tight…rest in peace my friend.


The spectators can cheer…
