As I ponder, while I wonder, I think of here and yonder, There’s too much of strife, In this truth called Life. A pain that exists, A fear that persists, A wave that subsists, An emotion that resists. There is arrested entertainment, There is concocted detainment, There is a being in contentment With a brilliant predicament… As I ponder, while I wonder, I think of here and yonder, There’s too much of strife, In this truth called Life. In any moment of decision, The best thing you can do is the right thing, The next-best thing is the wrong thing, And the worst thing you can do is nothing. - Theodore Roosevelt |

Poet deVine, Thanks for reading this one... Seems like I am finally catching up on my postings and checking out, if I have not yet thanked anyone in particular. I am sorry for being so rude and not replying your words earlier. Regards, Sudhir. |

"There is a being in contentment With a brilliant predicament…" this sounds like a win-lose situation...sometimes I resemble this! Well done, Sudhir, enjoyed! |
