No Need to Run

Often we see people running from the situations and not facing them, which made me wonder why do we do it and how can we be the fighters. Therefore, my this poem shows how can we achieve it.

NO NEED TO RUN

While driving the car

On my way to office,

Got banged into by a mobike

In the heavy traffic.

I sensed this could happen

As that was a sudden jerk,

Thought of scolding the guy,

Yet could not go berserk.

This was because

He was a young collegiate,

Excited he might be,

Of riding a bike of late.

I only thought of preaching to

Not to ride that fast,

For it didn’t hurt me,

But could have been his last.

So, as I opened the window

Of my injured car,

The lad ran scared

As running from the war.

Escaped, assumed he, but

That’s what he cannot,

He will always be a shirker,

In his own web of thought.

This is what we all do,

I earnestly cogitated,

Run from the problem,

Is what we are habituated.

Let’s turn it to a challenge,

And do a face-off.

Let’s learn to be a fighter,

Rather than to scoff.

It’s you who’s in the situation

And only you can duly mend,

Your staying will surely help,

So there’s no need to run my friend.

Love always!

Respect

Dear readers,

Here comes my another poem named “RESPECT”. This is the one thing that every creature  of the earth deserves, hence the poem.

So what if I cannot speak

The language of sophistication.

So what if I could not get

Enough of education.

So what if cannot afford the

attire of modern civilization.

So what if I work for lower wages

In a big organization.

So what if I do not bear

Any specialization.

So what if my skin tone

Is darker than your imagination.

So what if I was born

out of a gruesome situation.

So what if I don’t have a father

To prove my identification.

So what if I lay down every night

In a roofless habitation.

So what if I am not entitled

To the so-called reputation.

But,

Oh people of the world

I am too, just like you

The Almighty’s creation.

I don’t demand much from you,

No sympathy, no adulation.

The only thing if you wish to give,

Then respect is all my requisition.

Happy reading

Love!

Sonam
