Very sweet indeed is the joy of achievement, <br />A joy that is truly God-sent, <br />Something that causes us to be happy for long, <br />And causes us to break out in song. <br /> <br />The joy of a job well done, <br />Is the best of joys under the Sun, <br />Anyone would rather have it indeed, <br />To eternal happiness does it lead. <br /> <br />Rare indeed is this particular joy, <br />We cannot it lend or buy, <br />Something that comes after hard work, <br />For a hard worker everywhere it does lurk. <br /> <br />The fruit of tiresome years, <br />That comes amidst apprehensions and fears, <br />It is sweeter than any known fruit, <br />A hard worker it does properly suit. <br /> <br />A joy sweet it indeed is, <br />It causes one to have a feeling of bliss, <br />Something that is rarer than gold, <br />That gives joy untold.<br /><br />Pratheek Praveen Kumar<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-joy-of-achievement/
