Synecdoche

We set out from our homes

With aspirations bright

A bag pack of skills

And a sceptre of perfection

A potion of blessings

To keep company

We are complete.

 

Through the low nights

And during the blazing noons,

Through the hard needles of showers,

Until we reach the land of flowers,

We unravel

Secrets of the deep and the dark

We gain and yet sometimes loose

We fathom

Through the layers wise

And make our axioms

 

On a quiet night however,

When we plunge in retrospection

A star shines bright

Connecting and completing the picture

We are but one glowing dot from the many

And the canvass completes

With the treasure of family lineage

All encompassing and strengthening

A synecdoche of life.
