Standing on the road I saw the palatial mansion;
And O, I so wanted to enter the golden gates of that wonderful creation.
I stared in awe, at the glitter and glamour;
Jaw-dropping beauty, the euphony that contrasted my world of clitter and clamour.
And then came the cherub, to take me into the heavenly abode;
I told my clan, that in a clear blue sea I am about to float.
I walked in while asleep, till my insanity got cleansed;
Just to realize, it was a mirage I had seen while being on my side of the fence.
Alas! It happens with us all.
The envy and the hankering for whatever we have not got.
We blame and abandon, assuming we are always right.
But only when we tread the same road, do we experience the entire plight.
A longing is must, a reverie is must; but our horses we must behold
…As all that glitters may not necessarily be Gold.
