Search For Tomorrow
SEARCH FOR TOMORROW
On the bank of a placid river
built a little house, brick and mortar of my labor,
in all the sunny days made it a home,
a happy home where time for me stopped,
but nothing is permanent in impermanent world.
The cloudburst river swept my home away,
the past crumbled in the debris of turmoil,
the yesterdays disappeared in depth of despair,
dragged the todays into abyss of obscure nothingness.
The river receded far with my luster of life,
I now stand on the deluged landscape
in the midst of my ruined time at the edge of night
looking at the hollow horizon for the rising sun
in search for tomorrow.
