Bouncing Back

Bouncing back
From cold shoulders
And many a rejection,
Resilient, I throw
My full weight
To get
What me await
In the storeroom
Of fate!

Patience unstinting

◄ Regeretted I

Diffrent faces of the same coin ►

Thanks Sir it is heartening to know there are poets who read all poems to give a valuable feedback.

For someone not writing in his native language your
poems are getting more poetically understandable every week.

(Maybe - in line seven - what awaits me)
