With the summer's heat knocking on my door
With winter's breeze far behind
I sit here with my glass of wine
Cooling myself with soothing music
knowing that tomorrows another day of sun shine

I make a big deal out of travelling to work
In an insane hour - 12 pm to be precise
With summer's heat draining every bit of my energy
I just can't come to terms with winter being so far off
the summer's heat - a reason for people's sad demise

Close to about 40 minutes in the sun
Makes me complain
Not stopping to think about the ones
Who work in this heat
Just to ensure we get our grains

So let’s look at the other side
Do not be so self centered
It's not a joke when others say
That someone’s hard work
Goes un noticed when things are taken for granted.

So let’s look at the other side

A good poem on the whole considering the fact that it was written in 7 mins. very true that we crib when our Ac is not working. We never think about the thousands of people in the power station who does so much by which we enjoy in our AC rooms.. I think its high time that we think also think about small small things done to us by others because of which we are able to enjoy our life at the expense of theirs.
