My Promotion - A Dream? Poem by Sasivellat Menon

I welcomed the morning breeze
Feeling fresh from a hard sleep
Birds Chirping, Flowers bloom
Giving a boost for my day ahead

I got up from bed feeling great
Finished my routine fast
Off to work with renewed vigour
Wants to do something new

I met many familiar faces
One the way along
None impressed me though
All remain as the day before

I got into my chair with hope
Started my work with prayers
I was called to the boss’ cabin
Intimating my promotion

I felt as if on top of the world
Thanked HIM, hearing my prayers
Congratulations galore from
All around, replied with a grin.

At last got the fruit for my hardship
All of a sudden on a fine morning
I just remembered the saying
There is a time for everything!
