A BLISSFUL ABODE
I walk down a valley
Where streams make a sally.
I hear the birds singing
And I see flowers springing
Cool breeze blows,
Little leaves with it flow
As I look up at the blue sky,
I feel so good, don’t know why!
All unpleasant things seem to be gone
It feels, as I move on.
I see people at play
They are all merry and say-
“Oh! How happy we are.
Tension and despair seem so far!”
Nobody is a stranger there
For, it is a place where
Everyone is a member of a family which is huge
And no one is a scrooge.
It is so lively and green
A place you would never have seen.
There’s not a tear in anyone’s eyes
Nor an evil man in disguise.
A place where everyone cares
A place where everyone shares
A place where your smile can never fade away…
This place, I realized
As I opened my eyes,
Was nothing, but a dream.
A dream, that taught me
A better person I should be
To change the world for everyone to see
To do so, I shall need you all
For if we all come together
We will never fall.
To make this dream come true
Is what I desire
And to make it more beautiful
Is what I aspire.

what inspired me to write this poem is the idea of a better, cheerful and pleasant world. it is just a thought, of a happier place, wihout the selfish, greedy, hostile, uncaring and materialistic nature of individuals. In order to accomplish all that, it is important for us to introspect ourselves and imbibe good values. this verse also highlights the beauty of nature which can only be achieved if we work together, for a better tomorrow.
