The old lady's Wisdom

By Divya Sai B

One bright morning, I glance afar,
Sits an old lady, with a pretty bonnet.
Smiles with no regret, facing the sun.
I gently walk by, sit beside.
I gently ask the lady,"Thy look happy, what's the matter?"
Says the old lady,"Life is beautiful".
I giggled instantly, "Ma lady, it's only for you" say me.
The lady looks through, my pretty gloomy eyes,
Gently pats my back and say,
"Life gives you tangerines, not catastrophé".
Tangerines??, continues the lady.......
"Every missed chance is a saving,
Every problem is a challenge, &
Happiness is a choice.
Choose wisely, think wisely,life's a test,
LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL HENCEFORTH".

From the day on, struck my heart, the wisdom of ma lady.
Every challenge tries thy soul, she says.
Once wise words, lingers my mind,
For the words impact thy's life.
"LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL HENCEFORTH"
