AT ALL ODD VENTURES—
***********************

When a ray of thought comes to my mind
That I am left alone today at any point of time
I immediately call for the books
To sit with me and pull me out of the lone fever


When clouds gather shrouding the SUN and MOON
They never get perturbed but wait for the time and chance
The clouds after a while just flee away from the scene
Unable to disturb the assigned duties of these great planets


When sea witnesses the uproar of the surging tidal waves
It never runs helter skelter to take refugee on one count or other
It bravely faces the high velocity of these tidal waves
And keeps quiet for some minutes smearing salt to return to normalcy in quick succession


When heavy gales come down to earth to uproot the trees
The trees obligingly bow their branch heads in obedience
To tide over the imminent crisis and come out of the situation safely
And allow the fiery gales to pass over with waving smiles in confidence


Why humans alone get into streams of despair
Once the normal ways go behind the odd ranges?
It is passage of time and just time alone
That solves all the critical situations mainly in our favour

Great stuff. This poem elucidates what we all aim for.
