Change of time destroyes arrogance.



Change of time destroyes arrogance.

Oneday I came across with a man
who informed me about,
the Aral sea in an Asian country
Which had dried up.

Now we could see stretching vast sands,
instead of watermass.
Few broken ships were anchored on sands,
few shrubs were standing on sands desperately.

I consulted with Google
and came to know the astonishing fact.
My mind was brooding over it.

Suddenly my conscience answered me.
"It was the picture of reality.
The arrogance of high tides
were dried up by piles of sand."
