Dire Straits Poem by ANJANDEV ROY

On that gloomy day I was in dire straits,
I completely lost my way,
And desperately sought someone's help
Who could safely guide me to ashore,
But there was none like that.
Quickly I understood with my special sense that
I needed to help myself,
That was the wisest way,
So I didn't wait long,
Being firm and resolute,
I tried my best using my superior skill and intellect
To come out of this disastrous situation;
Gradually the condition improved
And finally I found the way to reach my secure home,
Indeed it was great relief for me.
