Hey everyone! I am back after a very very long time. Here, I am sharing a ballad written by me. A ballad is a poem or a song which which narrates a story in a short stanza. I hope y’all like it.
‘Don’t Cry Over Spilt Milk‘
Once there was a boy,
crying over spilt milk,
He was sobbing with regret,
He was full of guilt.
It was just then,
a wise man came along,
He saw the boy crying;
and asked him what was wrong.
The boy told the man,
that all his milk was spilt;
it was his source of income,
Now how will he live?
The wise man heard his story,
and thought for a while;
he looked at the boy,
And said with a smile:
“Look young boy, the milk is now gone,
You can see it’s down the drain,
now it can’t be withdrawn.”
“With a little thought,
It could have been saved,
but now you can’t help,
it’s already too late.”
“All the fussing and tears,
won’t bring back a drop of it,
all you can do is ,
move on to the next thing.”
So get over your problems,
and be an optimist,
Give it a fresh start;
‘Don’t cry over spilt milk’.
~KAVYA GUPTA
