Quiet flows a small river <br />And a small boat floats on its silence. <br />Nothing goes wrong for some time- <br />Nothing goes wrong.... <br />There blooms a flower on the face of the lone sailor <br />As the river recedes and his boat triumphs forward, <br />He begins to sing a song- <br />A sweet song... <br />Nothing goes wrong for some more time- <br />Nothing goes wrong. <br />A small wind blows, <br />It grows into a storm next, <br />The song stops for at once <br />And the boat turns upside down. <br />The sea emerges <br />And it embraces the river. <br /> <br />Nothing goes wrong.<br /><br />M.D DINESH NAIR<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-dual-divided/
