In the summer
We long for winter
And in the winter
We long for summer
In the beginning
We visualize the end
And in the end
We visualize the beginning
In the circle
We seek the parallelogram
And in the parallelogram
We seek the circle
In the darkness
We long for the light
And in the light
We long for the darkness
In the present
We worry about the future
And in the future
We reminiscence our past
In the difficulty
We seek the empathy of God
But in the gratification
We question the veracity of God
In the journey
We long for the destination
And upon reaching the destination
We long for further expedition
Why are we like this?
Why we always long for
The things, which we do not have
In our greed swathed grasp
The answer is simple….
For we are the insatiable beings
We don’t cherish, what we have
And we always want, what is not
In our hand
This is the story of human
Please forgive us, dear God
And teach us to cherish those things,
Which are closer to our heart, and
Accept the things as they are

very inspirational and a great ending but it is so true humans crave more and more things that is how we are. Sad but true awesome job on this fantasitic poem
You are full of wisdom Bhuwan...we are made in the image, and there are two sides to the coin God and His antithesis Satan, we embody them both and are always in this spiritual warfare until we learn how to
defeat the wrong.
Now this just spoke to my heart so clearly! Yes, it is so true!
Loved this poem,
