The Symbol By Dr. Coomi B. Singh | ||||
The pretty pink shell, lay there, half buried, on the beach. I spotted it as I strolled arm-in-arm with my love. He picked it up, wiped away the sand and shyly offered it to me, a symbol of our love, perfect, pink, strong and yet fragile a something to be treasured, nurtured. He held it to my ear; the waves sounded closer now, I felt tranquil, at peace with the world. Love was mine, and I was special. |
