Click hereGod exists
God can't die
If you don't tell the truth
At least don't lie....
Deep are the oceans
Vast is the sky
And now sweet reader
I'll bid thee Goodbye!
these lines crept into my mind as I was sitting in my study reflecting on my dead son Animesh.......and I couldn't actually find any logical reasoning behind these words beyond a simple rhyming felicity .........maybe the Great Communicator spoke something to me which I couldn't catch ...........
You don't often see poems like this, Ash. I'm glad you post them occasionally.
I might have left out "is" in line 6. I think that makes the rhythm of this short poem better.
I was intrigued by the title. There is nothing meaningless in the first 6 lines and the same with "And now sweet reader/I'll bid thee Good Bye."
So what is meaningless? One might infer its opposite, but I'm not sure. I thought of the two great commandments "Love God, and love your neighbor as yourself." If one or both of those is absent, perhaps life is meaningless. However, I'm not sure from my reading of the poem that was your intention.
