What will you do, if someone was watching over you?

The following poem is for a Happy Hour campaign by Indiblogger sponsored by IDBI Federal LifeInsurance.  Bloggers have to pen down 5 things that they would do if they had a life without constraints, if nothing was holding them back. We have to share our hopes, dreams and aspirations if nothing was holding us back. I, for one, would travel, donate, plant more trees, indulge in arts, and Eat!

A life without worries

A life full of dreams

We all love to wander

And blow off some steam.

We love to shed inhibitions

But worries stop us in the way

If it were to us,

Wouldn’t we all just slip and slide away?

If only there was some kind of an ‘insurance’

That would protect us from all the evils

Things like sudden loss

Dangerous diseases or major upheavals.

If someone out there protected us from all this

Fear would get out of the way

We would tick things off from a bucket list

And just slip and slide away.

What will you do, if someone was watching over you?

Do you like me, love to Travel too?

I would to travel around the world

From Hawai to Pataya

See the Mummies in Egypt

Walk in Riyadh in an Abaya!

I would dance in Rio

And lay in the sandy beaches of Brazil

Would go to the highest peak in Switzerland

Just to get an awesome feel!

What will you do, if someone was watching over you?

Do you like me, love to Donate too?

I feel blessed to have so much

And want to share as much as I can

I always end up giving

A tad less than I plan.

If I had a truck load of money

I would give so much more to the poor

I would work more closely with them

And be a proud well-doer.

What will you do, if someone was watching over you?

Do you like me, love to plant trees  too?

I love mother nature

Hate to see her being polluted like this

The lack of forest cover

Is lessoning our bliss.

I would love to plant thousands of trees

Increase the green cover on earth

Then lay on that green grass

And be part of the real mirth.

What will you do, if someone was watching over you?

Do you like me, love Creativity too?

Writers have become rare

Painters are becoming obsolete

Movies come and go

Technology is hard to beat.

I would love to immerse myself in the arts

If there was no constraint

Just pen down stories and poems

With a brush in my hand, I’d just paint!

What will you do, if someone was watching over you?

Do you like me, love to eat too?

Palak Paneer and Mexican rice

Hakka noodles and Gajar ka halwa

This menu sounds mixed up

But I’ll gulp it down with Chicken Tikka.

But health is wealth, they tell me

So I watch what I eat

If I was #BeFikarUmarbhar

After every meal, I’ll eat a lot of sweet!

What will you do, if someone was watching over you?

Do you like me, wish for this bucket list too?
