What a gift?What a gift?


What a yearning? What a strife?What a learning?What a life?


What a school?What a drool?What a gift?What a gift?


What a star?What a kiss?What afar?What a miss?


What a train?What a flash?What a pain?What a clash?


What a sniggle?What a wiggle? What a gift?What a gift?


What a gun ?What a sea?What a fun? What a glee?


What a sign?What a ride? What design?What a glide?


What a gift?What a gift?

I rode alone stray for more than a score year

Galloping, cantering riders I met there, and here


All steeds white I saw, but the riders black I learnt


Some rode along, some rode upon


Some rode away my heart burnt


Riders came and riders went, none were here to stay


Some I mourned, some I wept,some I was glad went away


Alone together trotted my steed and me


Happy for what was meant to be


We sailed the seas and roamed the roads in boundless swift spree


Basked in bliss of solitude as freelancers carefree


We tasted songs and feasted on colours


Painted with words and swayed with flowers


Forever I rode my bank along the gurgling river


A faint, familiar feeling lured my gaze


Through a mirror? no a veil of misty haze


Across that river and its never ending reality


I saw an image of myself? at infinity


It wasnt me, It wasnt a he


It was me, It was a she


The steed as fair as mine


And the rider even fairer galloped in unison


The unforgiving river between, both giving and taking


Reflecting twilights crimson


Knights in white on either sideof the river of reality


Yet nestled together in the same pod like partners pea
