If You Have To Poem by Pradip Chattopadhyay

If You Have To



If you have to make your way
make your way.

the lesson learned one summer noon
on a deserted village road
will not be forgotten soon.

The tyres came to a screeching halt
were lying boulders of asphalt
blocking the way.

Long hours of drive still waiting
needed to do the only sensible thing

Accept the choice
lent by sanity's voice

THE SITUATION DEMANDS
MAKE BEST USE OF THOSE HANDS

When left the stumbling blocks behind

hands were aching wiser was mind.

When we overcome stumbling blocks, though there may be physical fatigue, the satisfaction derived will be immense and we grow wiser! ! A lesson learnt the hard way! !
