Sonnet: When Unfairly Rejected, Don’t Get Dejected!

When every time I face an election,
And get defeated by one shamefully,
I thank my stars and curb my emotion;
I accept voters’ verdict gratefully!

A Lion shouldn’t lead beasts of vile nature;
An honest man shouldn’t change his virtuous trait;
My talents, God will show how to nurture;
No one can change some foolish people’s fate!

A righteous king can’t rule an evil land;
The lazy-bones want leader too moron;
In everything, you see Almighty’s Hand!
He crowns the upright people with a sun!

The Lord has greater plans for righteous souls;
Prepare your mind and heart for newer roles!
