It started with that smile so subtle and calm like wind after rain,
A smile to brighten the dark so beautiful yet sane;
Wish it stayed so, infectious and serene still out of arms reach,
Like the blue ocean afar, calm but tough to breach.
But it didn't stop there and seeped into all the darkness it could find,
Did so with ease and fervor and with all its goodness to bind;
Afar lay a stone, cold unbreakable and gloomy dark,
Impossible to break or touch, in a different world it struggled to make a mark.
And then it happened like a bolt of lightning cutting through the darkness laden skies,
A laughter beamed the glow of the sun and the crackle of childish cries;
The stone unruffled with the thunder, for days it did not care,
Relentless the lightning's laughter, kept striking until it caught the lonely stone's stare.
And the stone looked upon the brightness with now eager eyes feeling distraught,
Tried so hard to spread it's arms, to reach the lightning smile but could not;
There was more thunder and lightning made everything so dazzling bright,
Alas thought the stone , it never could do more than to bask in it's glorious light.
