Very nice..veryy allegorical as always:),

Some Violins I think, play the song of life, not with the help of the wizard, but through the magic of itself.

This piece brought only one word to mind: Fairies.

The piece seems inspired by the movie `The Red Violin`.

refreshingly simple & elegant story in contrast to the sick-brained urban alienation kind of crap which the avante-garde kind of `literature` is spewed these days.

jo taar sey nikli hai , voh dhunn subb ney sunee hai
jo saaz pey guzree hai , voh kis dil ko putaa hai.

You know your own language well , your english or any other language you take up would be axiomatically great.

thanks .

Thank you, `American Express` ... I have never received a reply that is so poetic and musical in its own right... Thank you again...:)

Good one Zeejah. You like to carve out stuff from wood - puppets, violin. Keep it secret and don`t tell it to Rehanansari, otherwise he will request a cot that listens to breezes and rain drops and moves automatically to its little bit of common heritage - trees.
