92. Poem
Walking through the life's road
Knowing not where I'm heading forth
The crossroads of paths I do see
Which way I shall choose that'd be best for me
Roads ahead are unclear, dark and obscured
The vehicles I can see but haven't yet board
Awaiting the hands from past, sincerely old but young
A youthful heart that's pure and unburnt
The road that's already trodden taught me life's art
Experiences replete with ugly stings, never to repeat
Knowing completely well the dangers of pits and holes
Can't walk those dingy, dark and unequipped roads
So the heart completely knows the difference now
Only to fix my gaze upon the straight path to heavenly abode
Deeds righteous to take up on boarding the next train of life
Hoping the driver divine will perfectly guide us to our destination divine
Hold my hand and plunge into the pool of faith and belief
Heading into the jungles of piety and righteousness complete
A perfect home for those whose hearts are mellowed
For the endeavours kind and holy that's to be taken securely
Heading straight into the realms and zones chosen by God
Help us O lord and guide us to such paths that are beautifully yours

The road you take
with a true heart
both faith and belief
are found deep inside
poetry full of love.
