Meandering
Life, a meandering river ~
Not all pebbles are shiny!
the humming sonata of a melodious stream
tranquil dreams...until the current becomes fast,
and the journey becomes arduous!
Life ~ full of possibilities, dreams infinite...
affection, romantic love, close relationships -
peace ~ our goal
painful memories -
loss, longing, death, heartbreak...
every day a challenge!
An incense burns to exude aroma until only the ash remains...
A candle glows, and melts leaving tiny pearls...
Flowers droop and lose their lustre,
Rivers flow with curves and bends,
from high mountaintops through plains and valleys,
to reach ultimate love.
Dreams don’t wilt....
But Happiness fades away before we know it!
