Aren’t Its Ways Simply Miraculous? 

Life slips through your fingers like an eel,

It is gone by the time you get a bit of its feel!

At times like a mirage it appears,

You go closer and it disappears!

You hardly realise the passage of a life-span,

It is more like a flash in the pan!

From where does it come and where it goes?

From where does it bring its numerous delights and many many woes?

From where come the challenges that before us it throws?

It is an enigma wrapped in a mystery,

From where did originate its fascinating history?

Who can fathom its purpose and know its crux

When it is ever changing and ever in a flux?

Ever nebulous, still so fabulous,

Aren’t its ways simply miraculous?
