Like a floe,
she traveled aimlessly
on the cold horizon
of some presumably bleak plight
soon the sun
out of pity
came out to give her some warmth
and before the sun knew
her berg melted
making her dissolve into the oblivion
taking her sadly
out of any humanly sight

We sometimes unintentionally end up upsetting others.
For a monet ther, I thought I’d like to dissolve just like the iceberg, but then on second thoughts-
Nah, I’d rather be the raging waves. (I know completely unrelated to ht piece, but anyway thought i’s just say it) 😀
True that. Thanks for understanding the essence of my work
My pleasure, Shantanu.
You shouldn’t. Sometime people do more harm to us by trying to do good. Don’t you think
😊🌸
Well, I agree on that note. good too can be deceived.
