Story of a stone

This is the story of a stone,
that was left alone..all alone...

One fine day,
on the beach of Kaskasa bay
arrived a ship with thousands of workers,
who picked up stones and boulders
and dumped them in the ship.
And amidst of all this,
one little stone got thumped by feet,
went under the sand and never picked.
Tried to implore but no one ticked..

Cast away on the beach,
the stone was pushed beyond anyone's reach
Where no one can hear it's voice
and no one can see it from the sky...
Time passed by...
Ships came and went..But...

And as years rolled down
our little stone started losing it's brown..
Old and haggard
it took a corner for itself,
Gave up hopes for any kind of help......

Only a miracle could unite it
with people he grew.....
Orr...was it a miracle ..years ago..??
that left it alone..only to tell:
"You don't need anyone to glue,
for you'll always be different, always new"...!!


..and it so happened, that while others joined hands to form skyscrapers, our little stone turned out to be a precious stone of the era, one of it's kind, said all the archeologists...
