The Grey Lights# 35
☆ – “Choice & Chance” – ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay ☆
In meadow of thorns lies a flower
only friend of him is a rain shower
in his struggle of surviving
he dreams of thriving
But comes the day
that tests his power
where comes the wind
riding on scorching summer
a season in his life
that makes him bend over
but for the thorns
who only get sharper
little flower makes the choice
to close his wings
the stubborn thorns choose
to play their innings
by the time that goes by
the flower barely surviving
and the thorns go stiff
when they get hardening
then nature gives the chance
so rains come pouring
flexible flower takes the chance
lifeless thorns get flushing
and thrives the flower
only to make another choice
thorns keep waiting
for a chance to rejoice
