Shard of glassA Poem by Meera Krishna
'The single glass broke to give a million daughters
Reminding the way a heart broke
But didn't cause any pain like the latter The pieces had flung like jet and scattered the room In them was a piece Large enough to get pleased For it still looked like the glass The only surviving daughter of its expired parent Still some pieces, broken and damaged, stayed together Unlike the social animals Who knew what unity meant And perhaps didn't know what it meant The girl gathered the broken pieces And took them to her mother with trembling fingers Expecting a scolding For she had broken the glass molding The mother looked at the remains and said It's better to see broken glass then to see a broken world' © 2013 Meera KrishnaReviews
