The Elephant in the Room

When I am gone, don't shed a tear nor you cry. With the angels, the salsa and jive I shall try. Walk in the clouds and sail on the moon, Make them laugh and be a cartoon.  Vacation on Mars, Venus and Jupiter With a bottle of scotch and the sky  my theatre.  Regale them with bollywood mixes, Break into a jig, till the sun shows up and say's, that's it! Tell them why a warrior never goes, Like the Phoenix, The Lion too rises from its ashes and roars.

With the leaves all withering away, The tree stands tall with the roots firm in the ground Withstanding the onslaught and waiting for a better day Let's the birds perch and builds its nest Smiling,  having still to give back, Even after it has shed all it had Hope and belief, keeps it strong Awaiting the sun and rain, to sing its back to life song. There ain't no right and there is no wrong There's just a phase that each has to face A full circle, life repeats several times, Till life decides, its done enough of its rounds.
