A Grass…!

On a misty morning, in a lush green lawn, a family of green grass woke up to Sun's rise! One grass looked up to the sky, saddened, wanting to be separated out of the family to be moved elsewhere…

The grass might have wanted to be a coconut tree

Or just break free

It wanted to grow tall

Not ready to accept the impossibility at all

The grass asked and asked, never realizing the impossibility of its wants. Thus it prayed…

'hey, I need not be a grass in this lawn

I can be better off than Sun'

Times flew as the grass grew old, but it never heard and none told…

How beautiful you look

To write you I shook

If you might be alone, none would care

While you're together, I can't stop to stare

As the poet wrote verses unending, grass didn't know its beauty while it asked to be someone else.

The grass saw its ending, poems would be written on and on and forever…
