Looking Ahead!

A summer not one swallow makes

Nor a shadow brings the night

Yet happens, in life one sees

You want to give up without a fight



So what, if you never reached

The haven that you thought

It does not matter whatever happened

In spite of all the battles you fought



Despair not for the harbor lost

Your intent was true

There are so many oceans there

Why should you feel blue



Open your heart and mind

To the world out there

Columbus set out to find India

But America is here



Arise, wake up and shine

Cast your sails anew

Open up the maps

And set the rudder too



For, a summer not one swallow makes

Nor one shadow brings the night

You have everything in you

Why give up without a fight.
