संकल्प

खेतों की पगडंडी पर नई नवेली- सतरंगी चूनर, झिलमिल गहने, आलता शोभित पैरों में, सजता पायल, स्थिर कदम। सिर पर लेकर गठरी बड़ी संतुलित, बोझ लेकर चली। चल दुल्हनियाँ चल न उतरेगा यह बोझ कभी। नपे तुले कदम, दृढ़ मन जानती है जीवन का चलन चुनौतियाँ हर मोड़ पर होगी विजय इस पथ पर।                                               ~Shrey Verma Rodricks India
