ON THIS EARTH WHY I?

ON THIS EARTH WHY I?

These words made me sigh

For I did always wonder

If I was a boon or a blunder

What's the purpose of this life

To settle down with a lovely wife

Or get those high profile jobs

Or meet those worth-for-nothing snobs

Or make a dreamhouse at a lovely place

Or go on that wild goose chase

Or buy that splendid sporty beast

But truly these things interest me the least

So why do something you don't like

And let your inner self go on a strike

Why live a life which has no use

This is a question over which we need to muse

So let's do some serious thinking

Aha! I can see your mind blinking

If you have a dream, go for it

Thinking about others, don't hesitate a bit.

It's your dream. So, you have to achieve

You can do it only if you believe

The first step, you'll have to take

I know it won't be a piece of cake

Alone, you may start to feel hollow

But have belief and others would follow

This is your world, only you can change

And no. Don't start thinking about your range

What's the limit, we'll define

The whole world, we would refine

Ideas-new and original, this world does need

Doesn't matter which race, cast or creed

So start thinking. Don't stand still

Together we can. Together we will

Another rhyme from a bygone era but the thoughts are still the same :)
