Crucial test

Wednesday,1st December 2021

Let the whole world turn against

I shall do my best

and face the life's crucial test

and leave rest to an almighty

to take care and make me happy

why should I wonder?

and not dare

to scale the highest mountain

and remain

on the top to maintain the zeal

even if my dreams are not real

I shall love to deal

and make feel

they are to be filled

with my steel will

if life doesn't want to smile at

I shall not budge from walking miles

let it be blocked by hurdles

or pose me to struggle

I shall not mind it as an individual

nothing puzzles

but makes me struggle

as a living entity

for the cause of humanity

and survive with an integrity
