Be Yourself But Never Be A Goat! Poem by Ramesh T A

Be Yourself But Never Be A Goat!

Even after education and gaining knowledge many follow
Something or someone believing success in work is sure;
This is mechanical way of living in the modern world today;
This will not fulfil the purpose of one's life in the world!

Everyone is born with interest, desire and dream to do;
Everyone has to think and decide which field to choose
To achieve something new and get honour in the society;
That is the way one can get satisfaction at the old age here!

Simply for amassing wealth all take work not natural to one;
This is like the goats do; all fallow suit when one falls down
From the ship on the sea to the great surprise of all therein;
At the end of life goat like people get no peace not realizing dream!

To realize dream one has to do what one likes to have joy, fulfilment and peace;
Otherwise there is no difference between one and the goat in the herd!
