THE MIDDLE WAY [a poem]

Life is a wonderful happening

Already geared up for our awakening
And if you have been listening
It can be quite illuminating

It is already designed to perfection

So that we don’t even need direction
As long as we don’t cause our own disconnection
Life will lead us to spiritual resurrection

If you are too good then we look bad

If you are too bad you make us sad
All bad people end up in jail, we can add
While good people will go to their Dad

So, try to be not too bad or too good

Just take the middle way as you should
If you want a good and happy life
With no complications and little strife

You can offcourse complicate it by plan   

And try to be as good as you can
But this is taking the short and narrow path
That will unleash the devil’s wrath

This path is only to be attempted on call

From that voice that puts spirit above all
When you have reached saturation
And life holds no more fascination

But right now, there is no need for all that

Plenty of time to enjoy life and have a chat
Some material forces might take you for a rat
So just keep an eye on the fat cat

We are the complexion of our times on earth

Where everything is already planned from birth
So, let’s relax and enjoy our hearth
For we may not have long on earth

Whatever you were, life has made you

What you are now, life has made you
Whatever you must be, life will make you
Till now, life has created and sustained you

So, where ever you go

Just go with the flow
