The thought

She sits there, wondering ,
Of things important to her,
And of little importance to the world..

She looks at that photo,
And wonders,
“When was this guy married?”

For He was a classmate,
And as old as her…
She tried hard to remember….
And ended up biting her nails,
A thing she does,
When she is in deep-concentrated thought..


A passer- by, she knows little,
Walks by, looking at her with concern,
And comments,
“You seem to be working real hard!!!”

I used to get people fooled like that before. Now it's been too many times, they know what it means !

reminds me of the time, when you smile and refuse to tell people why, they will conclude that "something's up!! I know!!" :))...

beautifully desvribbed the reflection of ones idea of how important a thought to her is little important to world and the world view it completely different. more the the poetic style - i am really loving your way of wrttiting - you write a subject and end with a tiwist least expected. there is a link in the twist.

it is like a short story with a totally different aspect of what the reader was thinking while reading it.

amazing monu
