Pearl oyster

-

There lies a pearl oyster; always closed

Dreaming imaginary worlds and fairy tales

Perpetually waiting for a perfect monsoon

Little does it know; it never really opened

Action replaced by mere thinking; yields nothing

It should open up to have pearls; good or bad

Oh oyster! be bold; take the first leap

Open up! see the naked beauty of creation

A day shall arrive, it can produce perfect pearl

A cold breeze; yet to turn into a fog mildly swept amidst bountiful garden the flowers hushed; 'winter is coming' they gaze for sun, nowhere to be found dense sky; filled with cotton clouds seldom drizzling, tears of pure love; enthralling the flowers, that doze off, until the curtains are raised by sunrise and wake-up call by the chirping cuckoos the flowers in the frost, live another day.
