The Opportunity To Life Poem by sookdeo manansingh manansingh

Of what use is it now
when its too late
for which there is no return
after this horrible mistake
all the pain and sacrifice
to put these pieces together
and to make it a success
have gone into vain
what valuable time and effort
it took cannot be recovered
for what was expected to gain

There is no loss of knowledge
when the same mistake does not repeat
it is better to get up and try again
until all the obstacles you defeat
there is always a second thought
that will give you the power to succeed
look into the mirror of your soul
and you will see an invisible light
awaits to attend to your need

Prepare yourself for the silver cloud
that will come to your rescue
you are never alone
there is always another person
in a similar position just like you
the courage to live comes
like a cross to test your faith
return to the drawing board
and draft the pattern of victory
that will lead you before heavens gate

Everything is not lost
rebuild a brighter future
that will allow you to wear the crown
all the jewels of the world
cannot replace the treasure of wisdom
to the words out of your tongue
its time to beat the odds
you will not always fail
the universe must give you
the opportunity of life
before the world you could sail.
