The message...

I sat in despair, looking at the skies;

it was all dark, no way I could rise...

Doubts about myself, the way I was;

a thousand questions,no time to pause...

I looked back, at the years gone;

thinking, if I'd ever meet the dawn...

The world at pace, moving ahead fast;

as I sit grim, reflecting at the past...

Is it the hardwork, they do that pays?

or is it beyond their meticulous ways?

Is it my destiny, that I am to fight?

Answer me, show me a ray of light...

A thousand questions or maybe more;

in the middle of the sea,find me the shore...

Will this confusion forever prevail?

help me, Oh God, for I want to sail...

And then, the Divine voice I heard;

I was left astonished, my soul stirred...

The answers my child, within you lie;

don't look around, no one can hear you cry...

This is the greatest truth of all;

look within and thou shalt never fall...

I gave each of you a piece of me;

find it in there, thou shalt be set free...

Work to your best, coz that's all you can do;

for the world shall leave you with choices few...

Work and you shall be rewarded well;

for the eyes of truth, everywhere dwell...

Innocent, as a child, I questioned Him then;

is the world always fair to men?

One last question I have Oh Lord!

what if I work, and there is still no reward?

The ultimate assurance then, just came by;

as I saw the white dove , across the sky...

Reminding me of the presence Divine;

this time, my child, you shall surely shine...

  2. hey!! good to know people from my organization delve themselves into things other than work.

    nicely written.. its more like reiterating what the Gita had to say.. the karma is all that we have in our hand. lets believe in the supernatural power and hope that he acknowledges it.. i enjoyed the poetry..

  3. Lets just say he has his own ways to examine how focused/sincere are you in your effort....and the challenge lies in not allowing yourself to get distracted and making sure that you pursue your goal with single minded devotion..:)
