Gowri Bhargav
A seed was sown by two solemn souls,
A golden seed it proved to be.
It was nurtured with love, passion and affection,
The sprouted seed grew slowly into a lush golden tree,
It breathed and bounced with love and mirth.
But shaken by the sands of time it slowly bore bitter fruits,
Flawed in character it became a forbidden tree,
Barbed and fenced it was in the throes of conflict,
The unprecedented outcome caused a lot of heartache,
And the lamenting souls hoped the forbidden tree
Would once again transform into a lush golden tree,
Day after day after day.

Beautiful and poignant💚
Thought provoking poem, Gowri. 💚💚💚Wonder what made a tree so joyful, bitter and later forbidden.
Thankyou Moonmoon! Tree – the child went astray
Beautiful and thought provoking.. I would relate it to the humans…
Yes! Sometimes children go astray inspite of having wonderful parents
This is poignant. The story of life as we know it! Time changes us and our loved ones.
