Brimming Obsessions - Where the mind takes you

#3 - Life can still be better........

In a world like this, where I was born,

Everything was seemingly different, likely to adorn...

But now, I didn't believe that the world could be so scorn,

I was rolling down the bren, having nothing to sway,

Suddenly saw a couple sitting by the bay...

I wondered on and on, confronted by the human society,

I endured the sacristy of human nature,

And the aura of the living creature,

Which were all being prodded upon by the Almighty!

I looked for someone accordingly,

I met my mom, the one encrusted with love, affection and profound wisdom,

I asked her what the world was like, and my thoughts were always welcome.

"There is prejudice, violence, lament, infidels and atrocities all around, then how is the world beautiful?" I said...

"There is also love, affection, endeavour, vigour and magnanimity in the world, my dear".

Those kind words of hers, made my day!

Now, that I was clear with my thoughts,

I looked around for someone, to show myself off...

I wandered about, in and out, accompanying the doll which I had bought,

I got to see a man, who was dressed in black, wore a pretty smile, but was stressed,

Went up to him, I asked, "What's that stresses my dad?"

"I didn't get an angel who would clear my doubts", he replied.

I was flattered and went on and on, speaking all sorts of things I knew,

And then, looking up at me, he asked, "What is the definition of Dad, my child?"

"The greatest gift I ever had came from God, and I call him Dad!"

Hugging me, he gave me a surprise, a teddy bear, which looked auspiciously rad!

I was happy, I rejoiced and asked him whether we could have some citations today or not...

He closed my eyes, and joined my hands, and bowed to God, and kept before him the gift that I'd got...

He insisted to gain SERENITY, to accept the things I couldn't change,

COURAGE, to change the things I can,

And WISDOM to know the difference between the two!

I yearned to know what they meant, but the child in me was in a mood to play,

I went out to search my pals, to narrate the stories of today.

I saw a man, gravely looking at the sky,

I looked up, found nothing, bent down went up to him with a word so high!
