Encounter

Encounter

A woman from east

Traversed the forest, crossed the mist…

She wanted to know

Why the river flows,

Why the wind blows,

Why it rains or snows…

But she was still alone

When she found a bone.

“What shall I do with this bone?”

- Keep it and will be done!

A man from west

Roamed without rest,

Put himself to the test,

Aimed for distant horizon,

‘Cause he had a vision

And craved for wisdom:

That was his quest!

But he was still one

When he found a stone.

“What shall I do with this stone?”

- Keep it and will be done!

One day,

When the sun rose

From its mountain’s cage,

Their silhouettes met in lucid engage.

In that magic moment love was the verse, 

And they forgot the mysteries of the universe!

It took just one look,

One single twinkle…

“I like your stone”

“I like your bone”

And it was simple,

And it was done!
