POEM - A STRONG WILL, Poet - Dr. Ashok Chakravarthy Tholana (India)
A STRONG WILL
Dr. Ashok Chakravarthy Tholana
Hours and days of life
Rapidly get devoured;
And the fleeting time
Keeps on bullying us.
Despite being aware
Time keeps chasing us;
With an unending thirst
We run after elusive joys.
Squeezed and crushed
By unforeseen upheavals;
Life’s hopes get shrunk,
And nightmares creep out.
At times, flowery paths
At times, thorny paths;
But confidence is the power,
Patience is the real healer.
Yes, a strong will liberates us,
A positive spirit uplifts us,
Pluck out the thorns of ego,
To grab ever-new contentment.
