The sun makes its magnificent ascent into the horizon.
Like a magician weaves his wand and pulls out a rabbit from his hat, someone
just pulled it out from the blanket of the night. I wonder if you saw it. The
little birds coo and cluck and chirp, saluting the first warm rays of life. Music
so mellifluous and tantalizing, my hair stands on its ends. I wonder if you
heard that…
The maddening day unfolds and I see people running
around… everyone seem to be in such a tearing hurry. The voices of mortals and
machines replacing the sweetness of the music. I strain my ears to hear that
celestial music… The tunes are lost… enveloped in sea of noise. Paradoxical! Sound drowning sound, fancy that!
Life whizzes past me while I stand and stare. The pace
scares me. It almost makes me giddy with trepidation. Makes me want to run
away! And then I see those smiles, some wrinkled, some youthful, some happy, some sad, some cheerful...but smiles all the same..so full of life, so vibrant, so true.
Then I see it. The huge ball of flame.
Just as it is about to drown itself into the horizon below. A vibrant orange
colour, the igniter of passion, signifying zest for life, enthusiasm, unending
energy, fun, informality, friendship, open-mindedness and so much more! How
liberal and unconventional. It slowly begins its descent downwards, till I see
the last of it. The orange sky with its jewel is all but gone, and the sky is
now growing pink and purple. There is something ethereal about what I am
seeing. It is beautiful to the level of intoxication. It almost takes my breath
away. Beauty and nobility remains even after everything has faded into
nothingness.
I sit on the moist grass below and look at the dark horizon. Another trick is about to unfold. I can listen to that music again. All over again…
