did you catch my article on reincarnation? did you mean to hint at that when you mention cycle?

True observation, aptly described...one aspect of life.
Not easy to change our ways...but possible.

Lovely, but rituals is not the word you want. Need more syllables and a harder sound.

Manoj, this poem hits the spot! The opening image set the scene for the reflection which flows into the ending - a statement which is oh, so true.
I enjoyed this.

Thanks dear all for reading and appreciating the thought...
Cemetary is a place where we tend to become philosophical and ponder over meaning of life. But go back and become normal self again. It is true for myself too.
I just expressed the issue which I myself felt.
Hope, you all would rethink.
Best wishes,
manoj
