I know that I am no Walt Whitman but it just felt like the thing to write today.
I look at myself
And I praise the start
I am quick and sharp
and have a sense of humour
I owe by wit to some people
my strength to some
and most important are my cores
My foundation by which I live
Those are my roots.
I praise myself today
I look at the morning sun
reminds me of hope
light means strength
light means vigor
I breathe the clean air
before the city dust hits my lungs
But I love the city life
The constant run
The traffic the crowd
And finding places to hang about
But as I discover the city
I do feel insignificant
Even with a thousand gadgets
The twitters have now replaced the twitting birds
And people around me play angry birds
I form possibiities
I work on them
And then sometimes
I fail.
But I create new ones
And continue in form
I am not the one to stop and wail.
I see a constant struggle around me
struggle to earn monies
struggle to prove a point
struggle to live.
I love the kiss of wind
and the touch of light
These simple nature made blessings
do remind me how fragile the world around me really is.
I have seen people die
But death is a part of living
It has to happen, it has to happen.
I travelled a bit
In the country and outside
And the basic human emotions are the same.
I love the fact, that I love meeting people.
The each person brings some thing new to see
Each experience is like a new para in my unfinished novel.
I am still unshakled
I am still unbounded
I am just a common man
Insignificant. Unimportant.
Worthy of no praise
Or prose.
And hence I praise Myself.
