Consistency of Inconsistencies 

Today is the tomorrow we once did await…

Yesterday’s dreams knocking at fate’s gate…

.

Today is a new day, much like those before…

With rhythms of past, and futures in store…

.

Our goals stay firm, though plans may bend…

Each day unveils in ways we can’t always intend…

.

A change in the wind may scatter our dreams…

Plans may unravel, hopes torn at the seams…

.

One moment we’re soaring, the next we might dip…

Life’s navigation, through a faltering grip…

.

We might reach the heights or touch the abyss…

Life’s journey pauses at commas or ends in a kiss…

.

Inconsistency charms, or perhaps brings dismay…

Yet it remains the constant in life’s intricate play…

.

Patterns keep emerging from life’s fickle flow…

Consistency found in the inconsistencies we know…

.

This life, though fleeting, with ups and downs rife…

Inconsistencies marking the pulse of our life…

.

In the ECG’s fluctuations, a truth we do find…

Life’s vital consistency lies in its inconsistent kind…

.

  2. Thank you, Kaushal, for your philosophical thoughts on two terms that are opposite of each other, and your excellent, as always, ability to find the essence of these terms in our life’s perspective.

    The image is as masterful, and apt as is possible!

    Bahut dhanyavaad!

  3. It is a nice poem Kaushal. Inconsistencies and up and downs are certainly part of life.

    I have a comment about something unrelated. When I open your page I get a message from outlook saying that your page is unsafe and that I should not open it. I am pretty sure it is fine so I click “continue anyway (not recommended)”. I don’t know if you want to tell Word Press about this.

    1. Thank you, Thomas for your kind words and sharing the warning that you received about my page. Did you open it through Google? I cross checked it, but didn’t find. Anyway, as you suggested, I’ll take up with wp. Thank you!
