The Peak Of Success

The Peak of Success

 

The reason

My professor loved me

So much,

I thought there was

Something to be known.

When I asked him

To give its account,

He smiled and

Had something nice

To be shown.

He opened his diary then,

Some lines he sought.

Once you'd opined,

he said then,

It was the great thought

On the peak of success

(in your mind).

He continued his talk

And told the rest,

It shouldn't be having

The tip and cliff

Or that of the Everest.

A question you'd raised,

What if it is

The Table Mountain

And its land?

You meant, its crest,

Where everyone

Could stand.

 

S. Bharat
