Little girl, eyes immersed in fairy tales
dreamy eyes full of beautiful fairy queens
looking for valiant warriors on white steed
searching for glamour in everyone around.
Sitting on garden bench she heard a song
she thought one of her fairies are around
she started to search for that winged being
in every tree branch and bush but failed.
She ran to her mother in kitchen and dragged
her, by her hands to the garden, and made her
listen to her song, and asked her to search
for her fairy, who is playing hide and seek.
Her mother softly smiled and pointed out
A little black bird, the little girl was bewildered,
“How can such an ugly bird sing such sweet!”
Her mother hugged her close to her heart.
She took her to the zoo next day and showed
her all the birds and beasts and their ways
Then she taught her the golden, beautiful truth
Beauty is only skin deep, it rarely reflects the soul.

Fantastic! A thought-provoking one!
Soul is much beautiful than Skin...But not everyone can find its beauty...Ur soul needs to be beautiful if you need to find it...:)

dear ajey,
when i first time saw a koyal i was pretty sad :)
and in case of human being i never care about the get up or looks or external glamour of a person.. i look for more costly things :) his/her soul, heart, tastes, behaviour...

dear td,
most probably you are right. only people who have a jagarit soul look for souls.
