A memory that had kept me awake the whole night, Took me onto a walk, in the dawns flight, While a stranger walking past me that morning, Nodded with a smile and unknowingly swept a tear from my eyes, A reason to smile back to him, was enough to pave through my solitary plight, Walking by a lonely pavement one day, My watch broke away from upon my wrist, into a splatter upon the cracked road, I looked upon the shards, as the last touch of my mother lay scattered bereft and cold, Just as I was about to hold the cracked glass with a heavy heart, A tear rolled down my cheek, and was glimpsed by a kind soul, Who walking past my loss said, “Don’t let the metal break your heart, Let the heart breathe life into those shards.” A smile, a nod, a word, an advice, A glance of hope, a gaze of strength, Will find you the way to the happiness deep within, Happiness, shared by a rose, passed by the wind, Cradled in the waves of the ocean, lapped in the waving leaves, All you need is a reason to find its way, Way to the depths of happiness , bundled in the bounties of a thundering heart.
