A story so true…

 

Once upon a time,

there was a small child,

As others he was not so bright,

But he worked very hard and always smiled,

Because he knew he had a long way to fight.

 

As he grew older,

the cactus started to rise,

The pressure of studies and career imbibed,

For every step he craved for some advice,

Struggling and jiggling, he managed to jibe.

 

When he crossed his twenties and entered life,

Once again he needed a final devise,

At this point in his life,

He felt frustrated and said, “WHY?”

 

“For every step in my life,

I always felt lost and worn,

Is this what I call my fate?”

 

Burdened with weight,

one strange night,

He noticed bright white light in the sky,

It was a star, shining at its height,

Watching him low with a wry.

 

The boy replied with a smirk,

“You get your light from the sun,

The only thing you do is fly,

So no need to make my fun”.

 

 

The boy thought for a while,

“I could just be the star,

And fly higher than high,

To shine brighter and stride.

The only thing I have to do is,

Take the decision to fly!”
