Water

a poem by Rajiv

Just when all talent had seemingly parched and dried
Leaving the nation devoid of heroes
You came like the rain and stood by her side
Making her proud with your 1’s and 0’s

Levelling the divide between the East and the West
Breaking all barriers of time and space
You are the river, up there with the best
As you gush forth to create your own ways

Always willing to work, it is said
With an attitude that makes others go green
Confident, still humble, you march ahead
As the ocean, powerful yet serene

Success may have come and so has fame
But you have placed your country first
For you are Water- By just another name
Seeking the lowest level, to quench their thirst
