The Test Of The Chief Poem by prashant shaurya

The Test Of The Chief

Rating: 4.9


Much before spring
when the dry leaves fall
the bare brown branches
gave me a call....

And filled with pity
when I expressed my grief
they just went on to praise
the test of the CHIEF...

They said, life's like your school
divided into classes
where, who goes by the Teacher
is the one who passes....


And when the springs began
they called me once again
to show me that it's good
to be faithful in pain...

Now I had understood
that GOD is not so rude
but at times HE intends
to test our servitude....

God moves in mysterious ways, as your poem shows rather delightfully. Your final stanza is particularly appealing, particularly the line 'God is not so rude'. You are a fine story-teller, Prashant. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

It is by our understanding of life that we have to have the faith to endure the hardships we face in it.

Fantastic idea on the nature of God. The story inThe test of The Chief is a simile of the life of a human. You are a good understander of nature, it is like a sermonette.10++
