Eyes cannot see the time.

Birth is not at will; so is death.

Next moment is not in one’s hand.

Hopes and fears are inter-twined.

Faiths and beliefs are promises.

Fortune ridden, accidents prone,

Success is not his; nor is failure.

Life is a straw that drifts along,

With eyes that can see things ahead

But has no power to see the time.
