Life Sculpture Poem by Gayatri Phukan

LIFE'S SCULPTURE

Am wandering carrying a Sun in my heart Sometimes getting singed in sunshine Some other times enjoying its warmth Wandering around Getting fragrant with fragrance of rivers, hills and forest

Melting away to turn into a rock Melting again as rock Made the rock fertile by sowing corn in it Made the golden flowers bloom In the salt water dancing along Has kept the Sun of the heart very tenderly and secretly embraced Turning into an artist Have carved the sinewy path In the hard rock of life's sculpture
