Retouch of Life!!

The Day of Saturn, It was 20.10 and Surfing through the book of Faces founded by Mr. Mark Zuckerberg, I
found a poem which is really cool and its quite similar to a poem which touched my heart when I was 13, and
still resides in my heart. You can read that poem at "Slow Dance"!!

Revisit Yourself


When you get what you want in your struggle for self,
and world makes you king for a day,
just go to a mirror & look at yourself,
and see what that man has to say.

for it isn't your father or mother or spouse,
whose judgment upon you must pass.
the fellow whose verdict counts most in your life,
is the one staring back from the glass.



some people might think you are a straight shooting chum,
and call you a wonderful guy.
but the man in the glass says you're only a bum,
if you can't look straight in the eye




He's the fellow to please, leave out all the rest,
for he's with you up to the end.
and you have passed the toughest test,
if the man in the glass is your friend.

You may fool the whole world down your pathway of years,
and get pats on the back as you pass.
but your final reward will be guilt and tears,
if you have cheated the man in the glass.


I would like to thank my friend K.Jagathi for sharing this poem with us...
