Without Rain Nothing Grows

I was walking slowly; standing firmly,

Until I was shocked, intensely and suddenly,

When I heard my name; Oh, it's a great day!

I was one of the writers, what shall I say ?

Wearing blue dress, though with teary eyes,

I was so nervous, with trembling hands.

Seeing those eyes, connected with mine,

What should I do, would they ever mind ?

Unknowingly, there I was dreaming.

As I woke up,  smiles slowly fading.

Be brave and fight, someone was telling,

the hopelessness of night, makes my life challenging.

I shall conquer 'em all, With my writing might, 
By books and experience, My knowledge shall grow,
Like anyone else, I'm just begining to ignite,
And in my writing, my wisdom shall show.
