The Flash

Everything seems to be meaningless The beauty you hold one day it fades away The house you build crumbles down anyway Money and power men accumulate in hands Fingers have gaps and those have wings Both either slip down or fly away I search and have been searching Since I developed inquisitive mind A thing or two comparatively of longer durability I went to a desert and asked the sand The sand smiled at me and said ‘’take my dunes ‘’ Then I went to an ocean vast and asked the tide The tide rose and looked at me and said ‘’take my foams’’ I was tired but yet not spiritless I climbed and climbed and reached to the cliff The cliff gave me heard look and said ‘’take away my ice chunk ‘’ This time I really broke And climbed down with a saddened heart Suddenly I saw something inside And it was a flash Glowed and shined bright And told me in whisper it is in your mind what you search In joy I hurried back and sat down to write this poetry.
