trailblazers fear not the stone-carved creed, and march on in every inch of treacherous terrain I thus go far, and the road grows with my feet..courageously we go forward, challenging the tests and signs of time.......feeling that our feet are growing. thank u dear poet. tony

I had no choice so I started walking on the only road, I am walking in darkness, I don't know my destination, but when I arrived at a place where all the roads were merged in a highway, I understood roads may be different but we all are walking to a common destination. A great poem, loved it.

While we walk in darkness there is no grantee that we can reach up to destination. This may mislead. Even in light if a person commits sin it is just walking like in darkness and ignorance. Leading life in light of powerful sun rays like wisdom and righteousness is good. Having courage and fearlessness motivates mind. An excellent poem is well penned...10

I hope this poem may give courage, hope, and aspiration to my friends who thinks their future is predestined or dead-ended. Progress only comes out of struggle, and we are all close to accomplishment! Stick on with me, and we can do this together!
