The Stream (Poem)








Home ward bound by road one day,
From a seat by the window bay,
My eyes peered towards the sunlit beam 
glittering over the turquoise stream..  

It drifted thro' the grass and hay,
Chasing crabs that lazily play...
Dancing over those tiny stones,
Making music, in many a tones...

The fallen leaves all went a-floating
One by one in rows like they were boating!
The fishes popped their heads out to greet,
To me and all.. Oh! what a lovely treat!

It gushed and splashed o'er mighty rocks,
And made me wonder where it will finally dock?
It climbed it's way, a little to the top,
And then, it sped down never, ever to stop.

Our life, it makes me think and wonder,
I'm sure, you all too will now ponder, 
Is just like this, sparkling blue stream,
Full of nice things which we later dream...
An adventure we meet at every turn,
The odds, new lessons, for us to learn.
"This unknown journey", we all do take,
Unaware till when or what's at stake!!
