thoughts

A fascinating view of the calm dusk,
Every single creation of god,
Adding joy and beauty to the place.
I stood there astonished and mesmerized
Enjoying every ounce of silence in the place
That was refreshing my soul!

Suddenly a shrill sound of a lady brought me back to self,
I walked towards the direction of the sound
Taking slow steady steps.
As I moved further I found the sea line closing
The shadows fell over the deepened horizon.

The sound was pretty loud now
My eyes searched fervently in the dim light of the dusk
For the voice that broke the silence of the place.
There she is crying.
I went closer till I felt something under my feet,
lo! a stream was running out there

I felt as though I was in some fairyland
As I looked with my eyes widened
I realized I had come too far.
Determined to see her
I cautiously stepped into the ice chill water.
at this second I felt as though
a thousand spears were piercing me
Slowly I moved step by step
Till i was knee deep in water

Scared thinking i might get drowned i moved
To realize that that was the maximum depth
Finally i reached the other side of the cave
Oh my! What I saw shocked me
That lady’s face was a very known one to me

Then little did I realize that it was me
Beneath her feet I found pieces of life
Just scattered on the floor!
Now what do I do? Where am i?
What is it that I’m seeing?
Do I pick up the pieces or comfort her?

I was totally confused,
As sudden as I heard the shrill voice
I heard another voice but a familiar one
It was my mother yelling at me telling I’m late
Slowly I stirred up to realize it was a dream!
