Poetry

Racing in the field of life
At the beck and call of time
Fulfilling the promises in relationships
Ignoring the beauty of life
Ignorantly and impatiently harming myself
Is life a race?
Birth being the only bar of participation!

Racing in the field of life
Breathing love and prayers
Hope as the only weapon
Struggling with the commitments carefully
To play my role successfully on the stage
Is life a game?
Time being the only opponent of life!!

Racing in the field of life
Expectations as the air around
Pushing myself to rescue mirth
Which is at the farthest end of troubles
Defeating sorrows time to time

Chasing contentment like a stallion
In the green of growth physical
Appreciating each day which might fill fulfillment
Isn’t life meaningless without accomplishments?

So hastily I race in the filed of life
Before the dusk knocks my life
Before the barren heart belittle me
Before the hour struck end
Wish I could attend my commitments!

O Lord ! Strengthen my spirit to face the hurdles
Bless me with wisdom that can slay obstacles in my path!
