Serendipity Days! Poem by Naga Vamshidhar Ratakonda

It was Serendipitous,
I become Known Aware,
That I'm At the Least,
Middle Class Rich when,
I turned Forty Five Age,
Remaining Debt Free,
For Three Full Years!

Clandestine Moments,
A Lot Happened By Then,
Which I Didn't Realize,
And I Ought to Reckon;

The Choices I Made,
And Chances I Took;
Many Didn't Lead Me,
To Happy Frontiers;

But Serendipity Moments,
Swayed Me Away to,
Wonderful Shores with,
Amazing Opportunities;

A First Global Career,
Break Working With,
Cognizant Relocating to,
Chennai & Then Overseas;

A Free Ticket Tour of,
Singapore while on,
Transit Back to India,
From USA Assignment;

A Drift of Career Shift,
To Accenture Followed,
By A Quick Promotion,
With Stable Income;

A Sustained Happy,
Marriage Relationship;
After a Cumbersome,
Mate Finding Excercise;
With Anniversary Falling,
On Every Serendipity Day!

Becoming of a Poet,
On-Stage Drama Artist,
Literary Accomplishments,
For an Artistic Lifestyle;

Is An Early Retirement,
On the Future Cards?
With Much to be Owed,
By those Long Overdue!

Life, An Open Door Full
Of Happy Accidents &
Sudden Surprises Many;
Serendipity is the Name!
