Rollercoaster

Silhouette of rollercoaster
rotates again and again
With souls wondering and enjoying
The rollercoaster ride fast.

Life itself is an unknown rollercoaster
Rotating on the spindle of heavens
Carrying soul
From birth to death again and again.

Showing strange form of rollercoaster's
While making each step
Showing vivid pictures and sounds
Until you jump-out from the world of rollercoaster.

I like the allegory used here. Reminds me of my childhood days in NY and when we used to go to Coney Island and ride the rides...Life has been a RollerCoaster...I got on it in NY
and 60 plus years later...I am crying for the operator to stop it, so I can get off and rest the stomach of my being.

The rollercoaster of life is beautifully inked in this poem, dear T.P. I love how you contrast it with the rollercoaster at the Fair and how we only get off the rollercoaster of life at death. Love the imagery and metaphor. Insightful poem, finely penned. Thank you for sharing, T.P. Wishing you a very nice evening...

I agree my friend. Life is a rollercoaster ride.
"Life itself is an unknown rollercoaster
Rotating on the spindle of heavens
Carrying soul
From birth to death again and again."
In the end. We hope we land in a good place. Thank you my friend for sharing the outstanding poetry. I did enjoy.

Reminds of "Stop the world i want to get off"
Life is a never ending journey of procreation and death, a rollercoaster in many ways with highs and lows..

Life is a rollercoaster and it shows itself in different forms.. but it is ever changing and unique to each of us…. We must spin with it until we jump off and decide that life is too chaotic and we need a more simple, calm existence…..some of us limes it when we were kids but it as we age, we need to rest!
Nice write!
Warmly, B

If only I had known life was a rollercoaster and not a ferry ride, I'd have brought an airbag with me. All these highs and lows, twists and turns, are making me dizzy. In the end, if life truly is a rollercoaster, whoever has the most fun will finish the ride the fastest. Thank you for sharing the read, author Arundass TP, it gave me a delicate moment of self-reflection.

Sometimes the roller coaster of life is going far too fast. I never enjoyed these rides as a kid and wanted to get off then. Nothing’s changed. In fact, it has speeded up. Enjoyed my visit Arundass. Nicely penned stanzas.

It's the way of things I suppose. The ups and downs are progress but sometimes it's good to step off the ride and keep both feet grounded.
