Faith
Faith is not just a five lettered word
Its depth is beyond these letters,
Deep in the crevices of heart is its abode
Where like a butterfly it perches,
So frail so fragile yet powerful
So frail- can shatter at slightest misunderstanding
Handled carefully –has the power to shake even sturdy hills,
But is it so easy to handle??
Is it pliable enough to suit your whim??
No, not at all
Trials and tribulations it puts you in
Testing patience at every step,
You moan....you groan
No trace of mercy is shown,
You twist and turn
You writhe and twitch,
You burn in the furnace
Pounced by rigorous hardships,
You cry….you wail
Alas! To no avail,
The stern taskmaster
Tests in unique ways,
Clipping the wings of fancy
Trampling the dreams under its boots
For your wails it cares two hoots,
With the fire of faith burning bright
Keeping negativity at a bay
You overcome…..come what may,
Then it will say-Hey! You won
Open your arms and hug the bright new day.
