HARD WORK

HARD WORK

O the ever fertile and fast flourishing fields of Hard Work,
Never pass through any  disappointing or dampening Luck!
The fierce and frustrating floods of Failure never frequent It,
The debilitating droughts of Despair never dare to distress a bit!

O Hard Work is the only nourishing and vital Food for the plants of Success,
All the unrivalled Victors, without It, would have lagged far behind in life's Race!
The bitter Neem Leaves of Hard Work taste sweeter even than saccharine,
Alas! Without It, even the fittest falter and fall in the fight, and the richest lean!

Hard Work is the stringent Anvil in life's honest and fiery furnace,
Where the stains of sloth are scorched to obtain purity and peace,
Where the raw thoughts are struck hard to have the ripe and right shapes,
And from where ejaculates life's perfection and oozes ultimate happiness!

Let's, thus, never cowardly and callously hesitate to wear in life Hard Work's shoes,
For, Harder the Work is, more rewarding, more relishing and rarer are the Feats-dues!
