Expiry date

Dr Pritish Chowdhury

Narrative
Be it anything
Before it’s expiry date
Grab out everything out of it !

That’s the best and intelligent thing !
Isn’t it?

Our expiry date is
Every date of that calendar !
But is it in our mind?

Oh! We jump several times -
Uttering the word Samurai !

Nobody wants to be like him!

And still  wouldn’t come death silently
To understand our lives?

Think twice-
That life is not lost in its last breath!!

About this poem

The poem is about life -a battle field. In this limited time we waste time rather than fighting with samurai spirit. One should not forget to keep footprints through judicial ways keeping challenges in every aspect. Otherwise life is lost in its last breath because death May come very quietly in any moment.
