Mirth


This is about a child learning to walk from his mother. The thought that inspired this work was India's recent progress in all spheres. It's journey from being a developing nation to it's current stature is much inspiring......

A curious pair of crystal blue eyes.
An outstretched hand, a reckon in guise.

A sudden foray to make the hands meet.
A long sheet of tresses brushing the soft cheek.

A fastened grasp, an expectant look.
A yearning of a thirsty doe so near the brook.

A pair of shaky legs begin to unfold.
A tiny first step, and then a jolt.

A curious gasp, a rush to caress.
An assurance that failure's no reason for distress.

A brighter blue eye, a curve in the brow.
A tout set of legs, time for another go.

A gush of zeal, a bit of perseverance.
A trail of footsteps born hence.

A jubilant smile from the fairy in six yards.
The first six steps taken, now these feet know no bars
