SAdhanA

A journey of a man in search of the universe and the universe in search of a man. Note : Unlike my previous works, this is not a wild flower. It is a diamond to be cut and polished till it shines in all directions. Therefore criticisms and editing ideas are welcome (That should please Sumant, I guess ;-)).

Again the speck opened its eye
A vision flickered stuttered as though it would fade
but steadied itself in a vague way
The eye was now open and it did not blink
Sight was not yet born for light did not move.
Yet eye gazed
The eye gazed while the void expanded
The eye gazed while darkness handicapped vision
Then it blinked but for a brief second
With that blink, another speck opened its eye
The gaze grew fiercer.
The eyes blinked again
and again another eye was opened
Thus the void awakened
and the mind of the unborn artist lay with its infinite eyes open

@Ram - Not yet over pa...it is a looooooooong one. In fact, I have already written about 15 pages on paper...too lazy to post them. And these 15 pages don't even complete the prelude!!! As far as publicity goes, I have informed all my previous regular readers. Haven't tried for new readers yet!!

@PB - Hmm... Lord of the rings, not what I had in mind, but an interesting parallel.
