What I Felt

WHAT I FELT

                 
            With my favorite author on first meeting
            I was hit by his boast of own writing
            and thought,'what a big deal in publishing?'

            I felt a boost to write in leading newspaper.
            Crowded fields of story and poetry I did not prefer.
            So I chose scientific feature to enter. 

            I planned to write some brilliant and bright
            My first article came up within a fortnight.
            Writing profession chanced to start right.
            For his pride, my self esteem had to fight.
