Contemplating Journeys of Life - Triumph It Shall Be......

By Reena Virk Saluja

Brewing up a cup of coffee on long nights,

Sipping it slowly and contemplating harangue with peroration;

Working on vacations & holidays, getting postponed year after year,

Journeying into the dreams of planned destination.

Joys, sorrows, disappointments, upliftment

all sum up to plot a significant graph of life ;

Sometimes, low, or very low, sometimes high,

these ups and downs make you thrive.

But today, as we humans, all across the globe,

fought the hideous ,invisible virus - a deadly enemy ;

Jittering, struggling for bunks, jabs and air for inhalation

Yet not giving up 'H O P E' - at cost any.

Salute to all medics, cops, warriors & anonymous saviours ,

Salute to the undying spirits who battled bravely ,

Salute to the nation as great as India and courageous Indians, who

Continue to grieve the loss of their near and dears,

And I too mourn silently…………

Prayers, strong disposition, optimistic attitude,

And above all brimming with positivity,

Inspired by the dauntless efforts of bravehearts, yet

Struggling but facing boldly ;

Shall once again, I strongly believe, prevail the bygone golden days

And victorious shall we emerge, TRIUMPHANT solely.
