The Golden Summit



"What you see as brown
Seems Golden to me.

I have experience
I can tell
It's Golden.

Probably you can't notice it
After all you are so close to it

Its shine escapes your eyes
You don't notice the glittering surface
You don't appreciate what you got

I can even say-
You are thankless
I am sorry for my callousness.

But a gap of 20 long years
Gives me the authority to say this

Look at my cliff
It's actually brown
Full of drudgery, routine, bills, job- hard and thankless

Look at me carefully
May be you start appreciating
That you stand on a Golden mountain
Full of possibilities, adventure, friends, youth, Life.

Look at me - What do you see."

"Mama, I see you standing on a Golden Summit- 
much achieved, some dreams fulfilled, 
stability achieved- so as to say.
May be we are mirror images. "
