A Thought

A Thought
P K Routray
On a gloomy day
When I found no way
to come out of problems and plight,
all adversities together physical, mental and natural I had to fight.
As only way out I could find to seek His blessings with an earnest prayer
to change the course of the happenings which I no longer could bear.
All on a sudden, a bright light sparked before my closed eyes,
also a thought overriding the painful thoughts , consoling me did suddenly rise
“Do not get panicky my dear child, I am with you to save and guide
nothing bad can happen to you as I shall be with you in each of your stride.
You might have thought that I have forgotten you
as I look after all minute works, a fact very true.
But always I look at all, however tiniest they may be
all are my creation and all are dear to me.
To make sure that you catch my attention you may pray,
but then leave it to me to choose the best for you to stay.”
I realized that I do not know what is good or bad for me
as to a child the best, only the mother but not the ignorant and crying child can see.
