MURMURING RIVER
MURMURING RIVER
*********************
Murmuring river
Humming in her own mood
Swaggering, smiling
Was flowing
I beckoned her to stop
And interrupted
Why are you in such a haste
Where do you intend to go
Are you going
To keep promise with someone
The river hesitated a bit
Shuddered and blushed
I aspire to meet sea
That is why
I am flowing
I warned her
Have you ever mused
Merging with sea
You will lose your individuality
Your sweetness
Spontaneity and sappiness
But that lovelorn river
Did not stop flowing
Lost her attribute of sweetness
Merged in hard water
Embracing the sea
And put an end to her synaphea
Her own sustenance.
