Analysis of Venture

Shfaa Abbasi 2003 (Sharjah)



Sitting under a tree
Wondering ways to be free

Tired of all tensions
Looking for a peaceful mansion

Wouldn't it be good for once
To live a peaceful life just once

But then I wonder
Is it peace that I fall under?

Wouldn't peace be boring?
Making me sleep snoring?

I guess at last it's adventure
Which would be a venture

Venture that would last long life
Giving me new experience of life
