Where there's a will, there's a way;
But why was Rome not built in a day?
I wanted to kill two birds with one stone;
After cleanliness drive, I'll have to atone.
Should you pay back in the same coin;
It would be better to gird up your loins.
Make hay while the sun shines;
But remember to read between the lines.
Make hay while the sun shines; But don't forget to read between the lines.......how careful we should be even in our fortuitous days....simply a wonderful poem.... thank you Rajnish 10++++
Thanks for such an inspiring and positive feedback, Indira Ma'm.
Rajnish ji, this is a fine poem that is like a riddle yet rhyming with rhythmic words. We take these idioms with a final appraisal. But you are right. We need to read between the lines. The meaning and its relevance could change with circumstances and situations. Wow, Rajnish ji i thoroughly enjoyed this riddling poem........10
Thanks for such a nice review of the poem, Geeta ji. Idioms enrich a language and have background stories and a history which calls for reading between the lines. I am glad you liked it.
