The Load of Life

Two Legs,
The load of life carried.
Where Time introduces,
New barriers,
To interrupt movement of achievements.

But Two legs,
Never stop action,
Struggled with force,
To find a new way, stony, thorny or muddy,
To reach on destination.

Two legs,
Always walked ahead,
In all weathers, dry, sunny or chilly
On any circumstances, compatible or incompatible,
Where mind focused its eyes.

Two legs,
Traveled uncounted traveling,
Since it starts to walk,
Pain or tiredness,
Walked along with all destiny,
That was a purpose for living.
