The Thoughtless Thunderbolt

A million bricks of love and trust,

Pillars of hope that wouldn't rust;

The cement of joys mixed with tears,

Perfect enough to stand for years!

Three years of restless toil,

Handpicked granules of soil -

Was all it took for the skeleton

To stand with the support of none.

It became the talk of the town -

That the hardest storms couldn't break it down!

Floored with the firm, unbounded trust,

Roofed with love devoid of dust;

Furnished with windows of endless hope

And an iron door as an envelope -

Of all monuments, it was simply the best -

Built by two minds - with no rest!

It stood the storm of risks and fears,

The flood of envies and of tears.

The fire of wrath couldn't burn it a bit;

The entire world kept admiring it...

With all its glory, there came a day,

When a bit of it just blew away!

But mind you! It didn't break apart -

But the thoughtless thunderbolt breached a part.
