Vishal Kumar - Pearl

There is an oyster with invaluable pearl on the ground of the sea

Thousands of divers and swimmers gathered at the coast
ready to get the oyster
They dived for coveted pearl to fulfill their dreams and
i alone sitting on the coast was watching and waiting
Time passed
Sea became red
Many dead bodies were strewn across
some in mid gave up and came back
but no one got an oyster
Day n night i kept on thinking
how to get it
idea clicked
how about emptying the sea
i worked on it
i started emptying the sea
'Sea which has got uncountable lives to kill others
Sea under which want of everyone lay
Sea which is always searching for its Prey
Sea which has become spot of entertainment'
and
at last i succeeded
i found
An Oyster
An invaluable pearl


... i have taken sea as person's heart..which is full of wants...greed..happiness..n alll...
and pearl i have taken as GOD..your ATMAN....to reach that..we have to empty this heart from all such pleasures..in order to reach God! !

initially i wrote it like this..
God is omnipotent
God is omnipresent
but where is he?
he is in my heart..strewn and lost
i rummaged my heart
but could not find..why? ? cuz
i had direct desire to find him
