4. PAST, PRESENT AND NEAR FUTURE 

 

As innocuous as the wail of a newly born infant; sleeping blissfully in his

airtight cradle,

As evanescent as the sun setting behind the mountains; giving way to the descending of night,

As nimble as the fleet footed squirrel; traversing night and day through hollow spaces of the tree,

As tender as a woman draped in pure silk; her embellished eyelids lowered a trifle in meek submission,

As redolent as the tendrils of the blossoming rose; shimmering in magnificent

color under orange rays of the Sun,

As impeccable as the spires of the Temple; towering harmoniously towards the

sky, Was my early childhood and past. 

 

As speedy as the flying aircraft; cutting placid currents of breeze at electric velocity,

As boisterous as the kangaroo; taking two leaps at a time,

As rambunctious as the humming bee; buzzing discordant and loud at all times,

As tenacious as the milky white moon; profoundly illuminating the ghastly darkness,

As passionate as thunder clouds colliding in the cosmos; and the subsequent pelting down of torrential rain,

As pragmatic as commercial business; equating the intricate nuances of life,

Is my robustly rubicund youth and present. 

 

As mystical as the unfathomable gorge; the echo reverberating loud and stringent across the valley,

As mysterious as the enigmas of the universe; infinite riddles of creation left unexplored,

As inexplicable as the sporadic shedding of leaves in autumn; the rendering of lush green landscapes into barren land,

As poignant as the hood of the serpent; its fangs snaring viciously in spell bound enchantment,

As uncanny as the underground volcano; with its dormant lava unpredictably circulating all around,

And I now leave it entirely on my omniscient creator to chisel my dreams; mold my destiny; unveil my near future.
