errr...

may be it`s just that I`m not THAT artistically inclined. Or may be I`m getting too old.

In any case, WOW what a story!

(May I now join the club of the artistically refined... pleaseeee!)

As with most other stuff on chowk, I seemed to have missed the point completely.

Maybe I should read it again!

Socratez:

Beautiful! :)

Your story reminded me of a poem by Sir Iqbal, ``Aik-Arzoo.`` Samar was fortunate to be able to enjoy the meadow. Iqbal wishes for many things in his poem. Now, if the fortunate reader comes across a scenario/picture that was described in ``Aik Arzoo``, they feel really blessed.


Regards.

PS: Thank you for a nice read for grown-up children. :)

Excellent theme but needs rigorous refining. The reader loses touch with the flowers, meadows and clouds because of the redundancy.

Socratz welcome to chowk, and dont take my comments too seriously; I am just a reader and not an abba ji of criticism.
