Yin and yang - Gauri Sharma

The little fire

That ray of hope

She kept on lighting

With a smile like a bright flame

Never did she falter

Always joyful and tame

But when the strong wind blew

After whole nine years

The little fire was never to be seen again

Lost was she, in the air

With so many words unshared

Oh how I wished

Again could I see that face fair

There she stood

Bright like the sun

Radiating love and affection to everyone

Then there was that little drop of water

Her sister so she was

The water was distant and quiet like the moon

A true specimen of gloom

But both had a thing in common

Though impossible it may seem

Both hid their hurt behind a curtain of glee

The fire gave love to water so much

That the water could never return

The water could never mourn

Only churn, only churn
