Down The Line Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Somewhere down the line I sense some fear
Even though I have strong sense to bear
At no stage I loose the cool nerve
Yet sometimes it tends panic to have

After all nothing can be certainly said
Some of the results can not be had even after fully paid
They can come only from your concerted efforts
As you keep on moving by maintaining rapports

No one may know when blows will be delivered?
Nothing can be said about tides to become severe
So there is complete lack of assurance with success
Even if you fully prepared to cope with access

Something can be surely said about your ability
This can be termed as very fine quality
Person looses no calm and stands firm in crisis
The success lies where efforts are made with some basis

Entire structure can be in ruins if faced with weak foundation
Whole area can be threatened with little of inundation
Some thing can be ruled out as mere coincidence
But repeated occurrences can’t be termed as simple incidence

You should be fully accurate with your planning
Not everything can be achieved merely on wanting
Somewhere you should remain worried with apprehension
As it poses grave threat with burning question

You are powerless human being and may stand as lame duck
When all worries take you over and you are simply struck
You curse the luck and faulty preparation for failure
Otherwise you could reach to the end for sure

Such things are common in our thinking
At last moment we pray for safe passage from sinking
We loose all hopes and prepare for show down
Even if that means total inability to come out and own
