The Right Time

In the struggle of life I was wholly beaten Just feeling like I was a puppet in the hand of demon Time was passing by capturing my life power Determined I, to die without any fear Depressed alone I was like a vagabond Hiding so many painful wounds in my heart My lovely elder sister was an epileptic patient And to this my brother was so indifferent She was swinging between life and death Doctors said that she had few more breaths Mournful, desolate my parents appeared In a moment with gloom their face smeared I was overcome with a strong emotion of sorrow And I walked out not to be in morrow I reached at the Coast of Narmada River And I was about to end all my fear Just that moment I heard a voice Which told me to stop just for a while? I looked at him he was so bright Just like a morning star in the darkest night With a smiling face he came close to me And indicated his finger at the pretty horizon He said-“looking at that it seemed as earth and sky met But they are in real distant and separate Our relation to death is a little bit like that We never meet it at all we never come to an end Our soul is immortal it is a drop of divine sea From any destructing, evil force this soul is fully free Believe in that godly divine power my child Everything happens just for our better This life we have for fulfilling our duty Go back to home; your life is others need” Listening to his words I touched his feet And dedicated all my tears at his feet From that day my life has changed so Every moment to serve human is now my oath He has given me a noble cause to live And told how to look life with a different view In the dark night of depression he was like a hope of ray He was nobody else but my guru who showed me the right way
