'by-Pass' To 'surpass' Era Has Begun

Was absolutely healthy, fit and fine     
With Lifestyle of jogging, gym, laugh & be merry   
One day ... alarm bell rang at odd time       
Angiography led to Heart’s Bypass Surgery    

Situation critical, Heart went under scalpel 
Reports, X-rays, Veins cut, Grafts inserted 
Operation successful, Health went on to propel  
Heart overhauled, new lease of life injected 

Am absolutely healthy, fit and fine   
With Lifestyle of diet discipline and stress no more 
Every day.... alarm bell rings in time 
For Yoga, Mind-Body-Soul now peaceful, blissful to core 

Operated, for Others Life's countdown has begun 
Rejuvenated, to me Era of "By-Pass" to "Surpass" has begun
