A POSITIVE START
By MEENA PANNEERSELVAM
Every Sunrise tells us,
There will be a light in the darkness.
Every Rainbow tells us,
We have seen half circle in our colorful life.
Every Raindrop tells us,
We may fall but we can stand again.
Every travel tells us,
We have one destination to reach.
Every Surging Tide tells us,
There is Faith in the deepest of troubles.
Every white cloud tells us,
In life, we move steadily.
Every Stone bench in the parks tells us,
Visitors sit and reflect on their life’s progress.
Every road before one’s eyes tells us,
Each direction leads us to a set of new experiences.
Every Staircase tells us,
There will be a rise and fall in our life.
For every weary traveler,
There will be an Oasis in the dessert.
To see the brightness of the Moon,
We need the darkness of the Night.
Even Lotus blooms in muddy ponds,
It always spreads the fragrance of the flower’s soul.
Human beings can steal honey from the bee,
But they can’t steal the art of making honey.
Even when the Sun falls into a mountain,
It never dies rather extends its life as a moon.
Even the clouds are formed from the salty sea,
It never showers a salty rain.
Every failure that we meet in our life,
Lays a firm foundation for success.
Maybe the destination is nowhere near,
But keep swimming looking for the shore.
Each move we make while struggling,
Takes us closer to victory.
Don’t believe in the destiny,
Trust in the process to make it true.
Let’s not look at the lost opportunities,
Keep searching for the change we need.
Do not lose hope but accept your loss,
The comeback is always greater than the setback.
Take the next chance to rise again,
Like a Phoenix from the ashes.
