Success Poem by Vipin Sharma

Luscious, lustrous and glitter glimpse
Like a galaxy of stars alluring me
With her beauty and fragrance
Fetch and draw towards her to taste
Started my journey full of dreams and aspirations
In adolescence found entangle transforming from
Eagerness to sadness, bright to darkness
Flying high then fell on the ground
Tasting the beauty of bitterness
Feeling the heat of woe and sorrow
Suddenly found the novel world
Full of misery, narrow and sorrow
Betray, covetousness that once
Seemed soothing and virtuous
Now I realize the true meaning of
Hard work, devotion, and determination
Those eminent persons exercised
To get name, fame, and glory
That all awake me from a long slumber
Of dreamy virtual world to the real world
Where honesty, sincerity, and truth
Are not synonyms to success but
Money, might, and muscle exercised
By hook or crook to gain success today
But, my conviction still not shudders
Lies in human values, ethics, and ethos
Of our rich culture and traditions
Showering peace, joy, and happiness
Making world real, livable and loveable
To fetch, achieve, triumph and taste success.
