A drop of lemon fell into
the glass of water,
transforming it’s texture, aroma, taste, personality, value,
followed by more drops to make it an appetizing lemonade.
Once water, now carries a flavour,
to maneuver in combination with inner liquids.
A drop of love falling into the heart
transforms the texture, aroma, taste , personality, value,
followed by more drops to make
an immortalized mortal.
Once a human, now carries the traits
of the divine combining the human juices of survival.
An imaginative comparison! An engaging,reflective, and insightful poem.
AS THEY SAY WHEN YOU ARE GIVEN A LEMON MAKE A SWEET LEMONADE… NO MATTER WHAT KIND OF PERSON YOU ARE THERE WILL ALWAYS BE A CHANCE FOR THE BETTER AND BEST 🙂
Evocative images… found your description of drop of love and the resultant transformation very original 🙂
An intriguing title leading to a poem that does not disappoint but is disconcertingly scientific in its comparison and analysis
Thank you Vijay ji, Suzette, Asha G Kumar and Amita Paul for the wonderful feedback….much appreciated.
A beautiful and symbolic poem with a good message. Let me quote: “A drop of love falling into the heart
transforms the texture, aroma, taste , personality, value,
followed by more drops to make
an immortalized mortal.”
Enjoyed reading this poem.
