grain of sand

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

a granite rock ensconced on a peak
aloof, majestic, on top of the world
fell in love with a coquettish cloud
floating miles from ocean
spreading shadow-relief
over parched fields and plains
hiding in its bosom water, sound, fury and

passion

but no love ..............to spare
it waltzed with the peak
flirted frivolously with the rock
before floating away sans commitment
the rock heart broken
broke free and fell
rolled some distance, rested.....and rolled on
cracking, splintering, fragmenting into stones,
each hurting encounter ...............each stone
singed - sighed with love lost
continued the spiral for millenia
breaking into pebbles................and grains
finally coming to rest at the beloved's feet
on the vast shoreline................of moksha
shiddat e ish'q say
hu'aye aakhir hum raq's
koh o aab zair e falak
