There Are Boxes Kept In The Hall

By Kajal Jaiswal

There are boxes kept in the hall,

Packed up with my feelings,

Some with my dreams,

To which I crawl.

The first contains smile,

Whenever I think of it.

Neatly folded and packed,

And it’s the best of it.

Second contains determination,

Determination to do.

Wrapped up with memories,

Sealed with dreams as glue.

The third contains focus,

Towards my aim.

Because I am sure to mark,

In the world my name.

The fourth contains care I have to take.

For my steps towards my goal.

Not intending to back out,

For my aims to be sold.

The fifth contains all hopes of my heart,

Gathered up in a pile.

Wrapped up tenderly,

And placed next to distant smile.

So wearing a smile,

I have determinative mind,

So I have to focus towards my aim,

And take care of all my hopes,

And making sure I have got them all,

I placed all the boxes softly in the hall.
