An extraordinary person’s story who tried to get promotion with the help of friends and suffered stress and tension, but dramatically got relief of promotion.
Never a dull moment when he talked
Whether he stood, sat or walked
Jim is a man of wit and humor
Talking about facts as well a rumor
As he was a popular man
He surely had a lot of fan
Often he would say strange things
And gave it the needed wings
Ensuring it reached the right place
In the right form at lightening pace
A few friends in a bunch
He once invited for lunch
After the lunch was over
He told the reason for the bother
He asked for a volunteer
Who must be a man of valor
And talk about his promotion
To his boss and report reaction
He should tell about his quality
And also company’s necessity
He should convince his boss
His non-promotion was a loss
To him and the company
And it was needed genuinely
When nobody came forward
He also announced a reward
At last Peter gave his consent
In a weak and stuttering accent
He agreed to meet boss next day
Noting down what he had to say
The next day he did not come
And sent a request with some one
Citing sickness as the reason
Pointing figure at cold season
The next day he was absent again
Giving recovery as a refrain
The next day was worst of all
And Jim thought he lost the pal
Peter applied for four days rest
And after that try do his best
Jim who was growing suspicious
And was becoming more anxious
Decided to meet him at last
And to indulge in forward fast
Peter was found lying in his bed
Having definitely few kg’s shed
In stress and tension he started to cry
Jim consoled him and also did try
To give relief, bring him to normality
So that he could know the reality
“I agreed to stand at your back
But, realized might get the sack
Excuse me, this is my sincere apology
Not like Hillary Clinton’s mere sorry”
Standing up Jim quietly left the house
Without expressing resentment or grouse
The next day Peter came to office
But, Jim did not take any notice
The same day during the break
The boss came with a big cake
Expressing his joy and congratulation
He told Jim about his promotion
Remaining speechless for a while
Jim did manage a wry smile
Thanking boss for the decision
That brought about his promotion
But, until this day Jim does not know
Was it boss’s decision or Peter’s show
