Few dry leaves were lying there… <br />And an ugly looking ivy was burning down… <br />In flames was the cosmos of my past….. <br />Charred it crumbled down. <br /> <br />Before I knew.. <br />It was raining. <br />There was no rainbow in the sky, <br />Coz rainbows are rare in reality. <br /> <br />But there was this muddy smell in the air.. <br />The smell of BEGINNING! ! ! ! <br />Maybe.. <br />The smell of growing up! ! <br />Maybe… <br />The smell of BEING ALIVE! ! ! ! ! !<br /><br />maria rahman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/begining-or-end/
