Importance of Karma in our life There was a landslide.
There are days when you think feelings are a play, He clenched me in his wide arms,
And say some things you shouldn’t say, And taught me how to face
Or make fun of things that others lack, The downs of life;
But wait until Karma hits you back. For in the midst of those downs,
Lay a deep power,
It can make you weak, When the world had tasted despair,
When you thought you were strong, It taught me how to laugh!
It can make you sneak, God, you are the artist of life,
Into a life you don’t belong. You have painted
Beauty on every side;
This may sound terrible, Some blue and some black,
And may even feel low. There is nothing your paintings lack.
But there is something, The sun, you painted golden yellow,
That you should know: Which showers its rays on every meadow.
The trees, you painted green and brown,
It gives justice to the one who’s hurt, Which come alive with flowers around.
Or who has been through something absurd, Of our comfort you’ve always taken care,
And when something takes you at the edge of a knife, Your artistry makes us stare and stare.
‘Karma’ can mean so much in someone’s life. Oh God! You are the artist of life,
Baani You have painted beauty on every side.
X-B The transparent drops of rain which fall,
Give us buckets of life,
A WALK WITH GOD Though they are so small.
Once God took me for a walk, The birds you painted
On the road of life In endless shades,
Full of dust and full of rocks, There exists no one
He taught me how to smile. Who can paint the same.
In the midst of the sandy road, The moon you painted silvery white,
I could see blooming flowers, A fairy smiling in the night sky.
Flowers of happiness, Oh God! You are the artist of life,
Flowers of love, You have painted beauty on every side!
Where sorrow was too far... Aryan Anand
