ILLNESS

Illness, my greatest enemy,

pulls back the harness from behind to stop my galloping.

The physical instability leads to my mental imbalance,

which brings drought in my thinking power-

my garden becomes fruitless.

When recovery overcomes my illness

my mind gets balanced.

It nurtures deep thinking,

thereby ensuring full blossom.
