 As innocuous as the wail of a newly born infant; sleeping blissfully in his 

airtight cradle, 
As evanescent as the sun setting behind the mountains; giving way to the descending of night, 
As nimble as the fleet footed squirrel; traversing night and day through hollow spaces of the tree, 
As tender as a woman draped in pure silk; her embellished eyelids lowered a trifle in meek submission, 
As redolent as the tendrils of the blossoming rose; shimmering in magnificent
color under orange rays of the Sun, 
As impeccable as the spires of the Temple; towering harmoniously towards the
sky, Was my early childhood and past. 
 
As speedy as the flying aircraft; cutting placid currents of breeze at electric velocity, 
As boisterous as the kangaroo; taking two leaps at a time, 
As rambunctious as the humming bee; buzzing discordant and loud at all times, 
As tenacious as the milky white moon; profoundly illuminating the ghastly darkness, 
As passionate as thunder clouds colliding in the cosmos; and the subsequent pelting down of torrential rain, 
As pragmatic as commercial business; equating the intricate nuances of life, 
Is my robustly rubicund youth and present. 
 
As mystical as the unfathomable gorge; the echo reverberating loud and stringent across the valley, 
As mysterious as the enigmas of the universe; infinite riddles of creation left unexplored, 
As inexplicable as the sporadic shedding of leaves in autumn; the rendering of lush green landscapes into barren land, 
As poignant as the hood of the serpent; its fangs snaring viciously in spell bound enchantment, 
As uncanny as the underground volcano; with its dormant lava unpredictably circulating all around, 
And I now leave it entirely on my omniscient creator to chisel my dreams; mold my destiny; unveil my near future.

Take some time to walk outside of your own mind and into another, walk slowly and carefully; the mind that you step on might be your own.
