Surfer's poem: The victory

Success, sweet it is, oh! The ecstasy so profound, enveloped in contentment and bliss..., writes Aayushi Kishore. Your contribution

Success, sweet it is,
Oh! The ecstasy so profound,
Enveloped in contentment and bliss,
At last! The perseverance was crowned.

So long did I
Drift with the order of defeat,
Wow! Left me transfixed,
As settled around the victorious sleet.

Transported into a world,
Of oblivion, in a gleeful trance,
Blessings and adulation unfurled,
As all admired my winning stance.

What an indelible mark,
It made, like a brushstroke of hue
On my life canvas surly and dark,
Where earlier only defeat lurked and tempests blew.

Yes God's been kind,
In solitude I ruminate,
Catalyzing my grind,
He showered his grace.

As my priorities carve
A separate niche,
After this momentous victory….
I pray for just one wish….
Evasion of strands of complacency.

Beyond this point, stretches an abyss,
The path gets more daunting….
Till I reach the ultimate apotheosis,
The struggle shall remain fatiguing.
