The resolve…

I planned to go step by step,
Slowly, I began one by one,
And then it dawned …
That, this wasn’t enough
For one cannot step across a well
It’d have to be a leap.
But to survive, and live through
Through this modern mayhem,
A leap! Would barely make it...
So I’d soar-
Soar, beyond this endless race,
Soar, across to defy the odds
Soar, to defy my physical limits
To snap out of my cocooned self
To rise like the phoenix
Never to look back
And plunge into a life …..
Never to comprehend regret again!!

Here's a limerick for you:

If not the king of poems, it surely is a poem for kings,
A balm sweeter than even when a nightingale sings,
Is this an uplifting genie,
Or the new Sarojini!!
Or maybe it is Red Bull, for you have given me wings.
