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
