Man wants to unravel,
The mysteries earth has
hidden beneath,
And so makes his way through,
A very complex labyrinth.
He first does his work on
paper,
And then proceeds his way
through,
He doesn’t relax his mind one
bit
‘Cause he knows there’s lot
to to do.
He knows that the world
Is full of hidden treasure
And what he needs
Is wit beyond measure
He walks on ahead
Cutting hedge by hedge,
He makes his way
To the pot of knowledge
He now looks for wisdom
And prays to his deity,
He relies on blessings alone
And not on serendipity
He works hard
Only toil and toil,
He perspires till drenched
But still to no avail
He starts from the scratch of
dawn,
And works till the sun comes
down
He does not hover for a
moment even
Simply smiles and starts
working again…
Like the soft roses whose
scent is sweet,
Like the bright poppies whose
colors we see,
The world too is full of
beauties unknown
And so man continues his
search from dusk to dawn.
Sometimes on an exciting
find,
Rejoices our exultant MAN,
And then puts the prize outa
his head
And takes control of his mind
again.
Sometimes he fails
And feels in abundance
agony,misery and pain,
Beyond measure
But that too he takes in the
stride
And keeps on looking for the
unearthly treasure………
He stumbles at a point
Only to look up at the the
sky once more
He wants to screen the earth
He wants to explore
He smiles at the vibrant
colors
Wonders at the the exuberant
fish,
Is awed at the exquisite plants
And exclaims that these are
none the least..
He praises thee,the one who
created him,
And goes on searching with a
strong whim,
He goes on skipping stone by
stone,
Accompanied by the sun or
walking alone…..
