I Worried

I WORRIED

“ I couldn’t see the moon properly,

somebody stepped on it.

I didn’t even reach the Himalayas,

Somebody climbed the Everest.

I didn’t even sail on the sea,

Somebody reached its bottom.

I can’t sacrifice even my comforts,

So many sacrificed themselves for our country.”

AND CONSOLED MYSELF,

“we can’t do all these things,

as we can’t even reach them, the greats.”

BUT LATER REALIZED,

We are supposed to be inspired by them,

But not to worry- “I didn’t” and not to think “t can’t”.
