The Bridge

The cracks spoke a story,

Ancient and old,

The bridge that was used to cross by many,

Was now standing alone,

The voyages and the path,

Travelled by those few,

The visitors admiring the splendid view,

The river that flow beneath once had boats passing by,

For trade and survival this was the only means to come by,

Now the bridge stands alone,

River all dry,

Waiting for passersby,

What a magnificent bridge it was those days,

Standing Tall and paths wide,

Now it remains an unfinished story yet to be written by…

River Struck

A scenic river with many boats,

Awaiting their passengers,

I get on the boat and we move,

The paddle gently stroking the water,

Back and forth,

The boatman with a smile paddles effortlessly,

The sun setting over the horizon,

The birds in the sky,

And small island of trees nearby,

We cross mangroves,

Deep forests like,

Moving ahead I can see water till far,

Ahead a spot where different rivers meet,

The breeze picks up and it becomes chilly,

Fog can be seen and felt,

The boat emerges gently from the fog,

Reaching our destination,

I am sad that this journey is over now,

But I have clicked a picture of this memory to stay forever in my mind..

The Beautiful View

Two streams flowing down the sloping sides,

Gently flowing into the rushing river tides,

Twisted and curved along the lines,

Clear and transparent,

A shine on the surface of water in the light,

Catching the eye of the passers by,

Admiring the beauty of the two streams flowing nearby…

The Unknown Twin

She had a smile across her face she saw something familiar,

The water was crystal clear and brought a tear,

She stared for hours for it made her excited to see herself,

Strange thing she wondered what it was, was it her twin?

She admired her beauty and charm,

For she had no mirror to look at for so long,

She moved her hand back and forth keeping one eye on her new friend,

And wondered, how can this person do exactly the same thing,

It was a fun game and she spent most of her time playing it,

Her reflection in water began to glow with the light and she found it a pretty sight,

Now she must go home and tell her parents about her day,

About how she met the most amazing person today!
