AFTER THE EXAMINATION RESULTS. SOME OF US HAVE FACED THE FOLLOWING SITUATION IN OUR LIFE. <br />************************************************************************* <br /> <br />It was a moment of defeat, <br />A fall from all expectations. <br />It was a dip in the Jibralters, <br />A moment of self-realisation. <br /> <br />It was a moment of tears, <br />A sigh unto the passing winds. <br />It was a silent cry deep within, <br />A moment beyond the fountains of life. <br /> <br />It was a moment of self-repentance, <br />A moment of melting ego. <br />And in it melted all youthful vagracies- <br />A lesson for the unbridled horse. <br /> <br />And he stood between victory and defeat, <br />A war that was not well fought, <br />A battle that was grimly resisted, <br />Those vacation days that were wasted. <br /> <br />But now, with a promising heart <br />He hath decided to get out of the woods. <br />He now realises the truth <br />That Rome was not built in a single day.<br /><br />Ravi Panamanna<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-moment-of-self-realisation/
