A poor soul
A poor soul, asked the eternity-
Can you tell me,
Where is my destiny?
The eternity jingled, mingled
Laughed, puffed
And said, why should I tell you,
In comparison to me
You are so tiny!
The poor soul, finding the response
Cried a lot, but silently
And asked thyself
For an appropriate answer-
Later on realized
The cruelty of fate,
And, thereafter
Remained silent forever.
