Tale of two Hearts in the Sky . . .

                       Princess droplet had a big house in the sky. She had a prince, who held her inside his heart. He was dark, he was not handsome. His name was "cloud". She never felt freedom inside his heart. She wanted to escape. She wanted to find a handsome prince. One day she left the cloud, in the form of rain. Kingdom of sky stood in silence. 


                       Cloud tried to hold her in her arms. But she left him. Tears of cloud left the sky like rain, touched mother earth. But princess fell on a tree leaf and then onto a rose. Droplet fell in love with beautiful red rose. Her eyes reflected the color of rose. But rose was looking for more beautiful companion, perhaps a butterfly . He left the droplet, in a short span of time. Droplet fell on the grass, with a fear in her heart.

                      Grass had a crush on droplet. But he was not strong enough to hold her for long. A flood of mud took the droplet away from his arms. Droplet tried to breath in  the mud water. Flow of mud was too powerful. It damaged the droplet. Droplet felt like she is losing her identity. But there was a small hope in the heart. 


Droplet on Grass

                     She felt like she is getting a powerful prince, when she looked at the river. Mud took her with a force and pushed into the heart of river. Droplet felt a sigh of relief. River was so enormous and handsome. But droplet never felt like river is trying to hold her. River took droplet on a journey - across the mountains, into the green forests. When there was hope for droplet to become friend with the river, circumstances took her to the heart of ocean. 

                     Droplet was in amusement. She never saw such a big dynasty. Waves of power rising across the ocean looked like a kingdom ready for battle. She felt very happy. But arms made of waves are so strong that they took the droplet and pushed her towards sea shore. But again took her inside. It was a tiring journey. Droplet felt like no one is caring for her. She was missing someone. She kept on thinking. Yes, it was cloud, who cared for her. Who held her in her arms. Who never wanted to let her go.

                     Droplet was about to be broken emotionally. Tears rolled down from her eyes, as if she is dividing herself. She was breaking herself into pieces. Afternoon was rising. She looked at lord Sun. She was praying to him, to take her back to the sky. Slowly she saw a transformation in herself. Sun vaporized her and took her into the sky. 


Reflection of Soul

                    Evening twilight made the kingdom of sky look more beautiful. Her prince was waiting for her, with eyes full of hope, heart full of emptiness. He took her in his arms, with a silence - a gesture of infinite meanings. She went inside his heart.  She cuddled there like a small baby. Lamp of stars lid all over the kingdom of sky, as a celebration of love  . . .
