The Mt Kenya Times The footprints on the beach,
Is washed away in one glance,
I tried hard to hold on,
but they vanished in a second
All efforts went futile,
They are gone with the wind
Hardly anyone sees the hard work, the talent
No one recognizes the punctuality, the sincerity or pure heart,
With frustration and disappointment, I’m shattered
Wont my footprints stay,
Atleast for some time
Or will it vanish without a trace
What shall I do, to stay forever?
I remain fragile and weak, with a restless mind,
No peace of mind
Mind is lost and left behind.
The waves keep coming again and again
To erase my foot prints
But my heart keeps searching, for a place to keep the foot prints safe
