SKY

My heart and mind shall be like the sky-

vast in appearance with no sign of narrowness;

then only growth and development are possible,

otherwise progress will lose its way

in midst of the narrow lanes.

Sky, you are my inspiration,

make me broad like you

so that the black hands of narrowness

will not dare to touch me for a moment.

I will expand and expand

and progress will be the outcome.
