It started with the light
Which kept getting bigger and bright
I kept walking towards it
Did not take rest, not even sit
When raised hand to touch
Suddenly it disappeared, with silence around and nothing much
Continued to walk and found a tree with ripened apples attracting me
Ate a few of them and moved towards the sea
The silence melted into sweet chirping of birds
And not so far was a barren land with houses sheep n herdsherds
The same light reappeared in the sky above the bee-hive
But now, I did not go toward it,, becoz I was happy in my life
The attempt that I made before to touch the light
Slowly stopped it bcoz I was feeling happy in my life
Later, that year the tree died
Bcoz it wasn't fetched with water from the blue sky
The sea water got evaporated
And the birds vacated
Sheep's from the herd were to die
And so was the beehive
There was a hush surrounding me bringing myself together like a clutch
The light was still there ... And I again tried to touch
But... Nowww it started moving away from me
Becoz before I left it for the tree, sheep and the sea
And it all disappeared leaving me all alone
With a regret in my heart that I chose a stone over home !!!
