Preparations finally over
The journey about to start
Given a half filled bottle of love
In the lone traveler’s heart
Marooned in a strange land
Memory wiped clean
Stood the confused traveler
The journey now begins!
It became stronger by days,
The dull craving in his heart
The urge to have his bottle filled
He began his quest for love
A secret they told him
“Spread the love you have with you
You’ll realize your dream”
But the traveler still unsure
He kept his bottle closed
Afraid that he might run out of love
Chose not to take the path showed
With time passing by
He traveled far and wide
Seeking love and care
But clutching the bottle tight
Time flew by
The final moment arrived
The traveler now opened his bottle
And lo! it had dried
There was no love in his heart
Not a speck of it
He had lost it all...oh! the despair
Just running after it…

wow... that seemed like a the law of attractions's love subset personified as a poem..the use of allusions is cool....reminds me of hamaaar zammane ki 'potli baba ki' type analogies...
atleast i know 1 thing now.. if we get an abstract topic in gd... then mouli would be one of the firsts to find out what it alludes to.... :P
If I can retrench back d drops dried up or fallen down to refill bottle artificially,then it would fetch back d dried feelings of traveller!!"Coz journey is life & vice-versa!!
@ amul: am flattered...thanks...
@ anuj: well...since i wrote it, i can assure you there can be no artificial means...they are simply not allowed :P...
though i agree by the saying "journey is life & vice-versa"...but not in the above context...
