Featuring Shiva Neupane



The Mantra of Curiosity:

The curiosity is the seed

of discovery. 

Which enables us to 

explore the things. 

I just wondered 

For why this came to exist.

What is the purpose of curiosity?

If we were not curious  

Where our civilizational journey 

would have been?

I would like to decode 

the mantra of curiosity 

for why it is governing 

my thoughts. 

 

 


The Tides of Time:

The tides of time

Were smaller.

When I was a small boy,

As I grew older 

The tides of time became 

Bigger.

I realised the tides of time

Is very powerful.

It won’t wait anyone,

The art of sailing through the tides

of time what life teaches us.

 



The Death of Death: 

I keep wondering

and, wondering

about why, death

doesn’t need to die.

While everything has to die

In the universe.

How does it 

get the existential- immunity 

to get away with the rule of universe.

If there were a death of death

What would have been 

the existence of cosmos?

Could our mind afford

to understand this arcane truth?

 

 


Life is a candlelight:

Life glows like a candlelight,

It erases the darkness 

And creates the sense of happiness.

Life glows like a candlelight 

And teaches us to deal with plight

Life melts like a candlelight

And mingles in the air, fire, water 

and soil. 

Life doesn’t offer the purpose 

or meaning.

It’s us who give the meaning to it.
