In The Same Boat..... Poem by Kishore Kumar Das

Years back
I had showered
'unwanted sympathy'
on a colleague of mine
for no due recognition
in his organization
his acceptance of injustice
a puzzle to me:
but he marching forward
with the strength and blessings
from the Almighty.
Today....
I am floating in the same boat
the same situation haunts me
last time I was an observer
today I am a sufferer
By analysis of past and present
we only waste time
who is happy
who is sad
every situation is only a role
nothing really changes
except time
and we are born every moment
every moment, new for us
accept....as they are
enjoy.....as they are
that is the principle of life.
