What becomes
Of a child still learning walk
Then chooses to dance ballet?
Anything better than a broken limb?
How about one bereft of eyes
Hearing thunder bolt and feeling rain drops,
Still asking, “is that rain”?
One thing is sure, He will get drained!
Or a person claiming to have faith
Without believing in belief
Yet desires relief.
Will such not be crowned with frustration?
And a dancer
Dancing to tune of the spirit
When mortals stress in creating sounds.
Sincerely, experience will teach that dancer!
