The mighty Mountain stood with her bosom swollen with pride,
But lost when the tiny being conquered her summit line!
The mighty River lived wild and carefree,
But lost to the tiny being when his dams tied her down like a tree!
The mighty Forest was a haven for Nature to flourish,
But lost when the tiny being stripped her naked, to feed his own wish!
The mighty Elephant walked the earth with thunder at its feet,
But lost when the tiny being made her dance in a circus on two feet!
The mighty Lion’s roar echoed through lands far and wild,
But lost when the tiny being put him up for display on a leash by a window side!
Thus, the tiny being went on to reach the top of the pyramid just fine,
But lost when he realised he could not save his own mind!
The tiny being took on the wrath of Nature’s curse,
But lost to the storms brewing inside his own mind’s universe!
The tiny being journeyed to far away lands,
But lost when he forgot the warmth of his own Mother’s hands!
The tiny being tried to comprehend everything on the outside,
But lost to the stranger staring back in the mirror by the bedside!
The tiny being wanted to reverse everything to pre mankind,
What had been an eternity of loss, felt like a fraction of time!
Alas, dots are connected only in retrospect, as life unwinds,
When it finally dawned on him, everything had already changed forever to rewind!
