ACHES [Wattys Winner 2015]

Nature & Man

Where the rocks sing through the gush of blue

The symphony of opposites meet.

Where the azure fills the vacant spaces

With the tone and color in the aqua.

Where the clouds smile in congregation,

Of one true faith.

Where the trench deepens within the mountains,

Standing tall yet deep.

Where the soil drinks the rain,

To extinguish the fires in the thirst.

Where the episode of life began,

With elements of life knit in 

Sacred heartbeats and valiant breaths.

In those lands, waters and air, we live,

Fighting for some unreal belief.

In that place, 

We strangle the sacred life we bear,

We kill the magic of life that nature gave,

With supreme mediocrity of human mind.

There is but the same life running though you and me. Then why, I may be important and you not. This holds relevance in every strata. Straight from human vs animals to Men vs Women to White vs Black!! Not in one, But in every turn you take, there is difference.... Even when we all share the same core, life.
