APoem by By khursheed Bhat
An unknown entered in my garden and
made everything charming
Birds started singing and chirping
Upon his arrival and flowers made very
pleasing smile,
I astonished why abruptly everything of the
garden turned beautiful,
In a trembling voice,I asked a delicate
blossom why did your colour change but got
no reply back,
I went near to unknown and gathered courage to speak about the
reason behind his arrival,
In a laughing tune he said,oh ignorant! I am
your life and shall remain there in you as
long as you are in the garden,
Greedily I asked him,will I stay forever in the
garden? but he nodded his head in rejection,
I tried to corrupt him by my lofty wealth but
he showed his helplessness,
This way I came to know about the reality of
short span of my form and contemplated to
shun pride forever !!!!.
