185 "Life is not a straight line"- a motivational poem

  [ 1]

Life is not a straight line

That goes from A to Z

Neither is it a bed of roses

Nor is a thorny spread.

           [2]

We paint it with a set of colors

Restroke with another

It never stirs,

 Always flows further.

              [3]

Sometimes, the sun gleams across its bed of blue

At other times, the light dims with clouds' strew

Sometimes, a storm whips it, into a frenzy

But every single day, it sinks to kiss it like a danzy.

               [4]

Never think about- how many lows and highs

have you seen

How many ups and downs have you been

Focus on what you have substracted

And what value have you added?

            [ 5]

JK Rowling did not know

That Harry Potter would become a blockbuster a day

Steve Jobs never thought 

That Apple would rise high, someday

Did Michael Jordon hope to be 

most celebrated basketball player? or

Ever did we think 

That a 13-year-old boy- Vaibhav Soorya Vanshi

Would be highly favored?

           [6]

No matter, if you are slow, 

No matter, if you are below

Keep on glowing

Continue to flow.
