STORM AND WHISPERS



Naveen Malhotra Jan 22,2021
STORM AND WHISPERS
Entrapped in the storm
Fate laughs and mocks
Limping and fighting
Tears rolling, mouth drooling
A thought surfaces
Surrender, let the storm plunder
A voice within whispers
Son of a lion never surrenders
Where's the tenacity?
Stick to the ground
Let the storm pass
Long it doesn't last
Once it passes
Stand up and straighten
the crown
Proceed to mend your dress and mien
Cool down your nerves
Relax listening whispers of forests and streams
Beckoning to redeem the lost ground
Return rejuvenated to the town
Start a fresh innings of your life with a bang
