Sonnet: Wish You A Happy Journey, Friend Poem by Dr John Celes

Relax doctor, relax; just go abroad!
Forget your work-spot files and problems here;
Why to despair when you believe in God?
Present your paper without any fear.

Maybe, this trip could soothen your mind too;
Perhaps, it is a blessing in disguise;
Despair should not ever overcome you;
Too much of guilt is also most unwise.

Whatever had happened- is a thing of past;
Perhaps, God wants you to be much better;
Forget your sadness and be cheerful fast;
Let not despair become your mind’s fetter.

But never give up your good things in life,
And pray to God whenever you’re in strife.
