Beginning My Journey Of Life

Beginning My Journey Of Life

 

 

I wake up every morning with a hope

A hope which reinforces

My confidence to act

And furnishes me

To act with new endeavor.

Streams of joy to me it brings

Gives my life a profound meaning.

 

My hopes, or rather my dreams

Lead me to walk throughout the future

And forward me the ladder

To rise higher and higher.

 

But I've heard '

Dreams are often belied,

For the eddies of time

Never let them be alive.

May it be true or be not

My dreams and my hopes

Shall never be locked.

 

With dreams I live,

With hopes I grow,

Cheers of encouragement

From them I borrow.

They are the never failing friends of mine

I cherish them in mind all the time.

With every trouble

They make me cope.

My "Dreams" and my fervent "Hopes"

 

 


I do not write poems any longer. I wrote about two dozens of them some fifteen years back. Opened that old diary yesterday and felt like posting it. Please view it from a seventeen year old's perspective.

  10. Sarath Chandra says

    Your best so far, in my opinion, by far. It is beautiful; everything, the words and the thoughts behind them. Why the past tense? You can start with your dreams and hopes today. Why artificial constraints like age?

    It reflects the positive person in you !

    I read all your posts and always thought you to be a positive person, now I came to conclussion that are like that only.

    In one of your communication to me you said you do not understand poetry much. I think that is humble you because you are a master in writing a poem!I shall request you to start writing poems again !

  12. Charu Govil says

    Very nice and energetic poem. It truly expresses the ambitions and fears of everyone, which we all had in the prime time of our lives. Really, we dream out of innocence until we face the realms.

  13. ice candy says

    thats not a poem, its a song, i sang it ;)

  14. BEST FRIEND says

    A very good poem, though written fifteen years ago still reflects dreams and aspirations of a seventeen year old. Hope those dreams and wishes have been fulfilled when you have completed 15 more years in your life’’s journey.
