    An old woman sitting
    On a pond's bank
    Stared the sky
    With a bare look
    A Bunch of Thoughts
    Struck her mind

    A Little girl with Flowered skirt
    Running behind a flock of sheep
    Hiding behind a tree near by
    Waiting for her mother come near by

    Kept her steps slow and steady
    Hugged her mother and Plucked a kiss
    And ran away fast Laughing aloud

    Old lady shook her head
    Searched the lady and her child
    She grinned with a pain
    As her search was in vain
    To her surprise saw a duck
    With fluttering wings over the water
    Singing and dancing merrily alone
    With a sound of music quack quack quack

    (Just scribbled my thoughts. Either you read it as a poem or as a story.i leave it to your choice )

    Very intriguing, @periamma. On one hand, is the nostalgia of an old and lonely woman and on the other, can't help admiring her positivism in taking inspiration from a duck! Hope I interpreted it right!

    Sorry for not posting earlier.
    While reading your poem i was thinking of my future that i always think about when both of my kids come together on me and shower lots of kiss on me. I want to hold all those moments as when they will grow up i will be left alone like that old lady. It really touched my heart. Very well written.
