CHANDRIKA KALIA WROTE
I saw a man with a laggard pace
Curly hair and a haggard face
He had tired eyes and stooped back
But his hand still working with a complete knack
Guess he had a duty and a creed
He had a lucky few to feed
He found his joy in his pain
He didn’t let the tears go in vain
He told me,
Life ain’t easy is what he believed
For he always smiled and never grieved
So I too replied with a smile
“I believe in your hopes and your beguile
The journey of your life will be worthwhile
Just live your dreams and follow your heart
For you have won a battle very well fought!!”
MY REPLY
A battle well fought
is an award always sought
For appreciating rewards are few
under god’s creative hew
Our senses & abilities
that we call capabilities
A gift from the almighty God
arms us, to fight our difficult odds
Life is a gift, for that’s what we know
thanks for that, are daily seeds that we ought sow
Family our treasure
which makes every difficulty a pleasure
Not a duty to a creed
but a joy to water the seed
Laggard pace, haggard face and wrinkled lines
nothing but a reminder of the lovely smiles
So lets bow our head in thanks
and drop the sad sounding pranks
Soar with your dreams
and don’t worry about the screams
For God’s safety net
friends and family, are always there for everyone’s pet
