“Once upon a time” (part 1) by Saroop Chattopadhyay. This English poem was written by me during my college life, how I faced challenges, how I became depressive and how I overcome it with the help/direction of a saint. This “Once upon a time” is a series of poetry related to my life I will publish all in my blog one by one.

Once upon a time – 1

                      By Saroop Chattopadhyay written on 11-10-98, when he was student.

Once upon a time when I tried

                To get up and fell down,

I thought I would always fail

                So I became hopeless and dull.

Once upon a time when I was hopeless

                Then at a glance,

I got back my confidence

                And got some chance.

Once upon a time when I got some chance

                Then a question arose in my mind,

Which is the best one?

                And I became worried.

Once upon a time when I was worried

                I meet with a Saint,

And concluded my worries

                With faith in God.

Finally when a chance was taken

              With confidence and in the name of God,

Then I succeeded and became

              The happiest man in the world.
