When Pearl talks to the Ant. ….

A white pearl was dropped from the necklace,

In a hope to join the thread with full of its grace.

Moving and bouncing on the marble floor,

Lonely in crowd like a dust particle at sea-shore.

It felt itself dusty and dirty,

Still glowing to show the world its bravery.

Very disappointed but holding the ropes,

Keep saying - just sustain the hopes.

Full of tears on its eyelids,

Missing its love “Sum” where far in swiss,

Lying on the marble floor totally jobless,

Looking at some ants building a fortress.

One small slow walking ant asked the reason,

For pearl’s restlessness in all the season,

Holding its breath, pearl told the whole track,

The Ant smiled balancing the sugar on its back.

“Life is your and the choice is your,

Learn from the past and welcome the future,

Some time wait, some time struggle and some time just keep walking,

Even a year sees three seasons summer, winter and spring,

Look at the shell you have come from,

It faced the whole sea to give you comfort and home,

Patience is the key and struggle is your armor,

Positive attitude will make future even brighter.”

One hand came and picked up the pearl,

Put it in the pendant shaped in swirl,

The Ant smiled at the pearl’s higher position,

To build the fortress, again joined the motion.




PS- Dedicated to one of my very best friends.

gud work yaar...
but apart from the pearl and ant story, if we relate it to our life than it gives a different meanig..
coming out from your comfortable zone(like the pearl ws dropped from the neclace)..losing all your confidence, comfort, freinds, ...than the world looks very difficult to live in....
but thanks to the ant like characters, who are always there as your wellwishers or whatever u say.....for making ur life easy that can be by there words or the confidence they gives u.
finally its upto u to keep the pateince and work hard....because its true in the end definetly u r going to win.

woh patte patjhad ke...
pedon ki shakhon se..
pedon ki shakhon se..utre the....

woh patte phir bechare..
phir udne ki chahat main....
woh sehraoon se guzre....

woh patte dil dil the....
woh dil the dil dil the....

dil hai toh dard bhi hoga....
dard hai toh dil bhi hoga.....
mausam guzarte rehte hain.....

Nice one...buddy...

ups n downs...crests n troughs...felicity n doom...all are the part of life...without one other loses its existence....n that is absolute...

learn you lessons...

ants are threads to clung on amid the throes...the guides..the candles in the dark...

but in the end..to win..is your destiny ....
SUMday i'll b saturday nite.....



seriously a nice poem....
