Set the future here

 

Tuesday,30th May 2018

 

I tried to convince

but she did not evince

any interest in my talk

when silently I walked along

 

I expected unforeseen danger

and saw visible anger

you wanted to blast me in person

without any valid reason

 

I did my level best

as it was testing ground

for my patience

I failed to visualize at once

 

I think, she expected no thunder

and saw no undercurrent

she wanted smooth change over

but in the process lost valuable cover

 

I wished her all the best

and wished to pass an acid test

the life has to be seen as an adventure

and set the future
