The beautiful black jewel..

Once there was a lovely princess.
she was the favorite child of the king and was provided with all the luxury of the kingdom.
All the other kids loved her. Some for her beauty, some for her humor.
Some for her elegance, her virtue and her manner.

She was envied by the other princesses.
Some could sing better than her.
Some could dance better than her.
But no one understood why...
she was more enchanting than any other.

And thus the princess spent a wonderful time, in her beautiful palace..
she just lived her life, the way a river flows, the way a plant grows..
learning from the past.. gracing the present.. dreaming the future..
the destiny had written for her..


And one day she came across..
a beautiful black jewel..
Charming as it was..
brighter than a diamond..prettier than a pearl..

It stole her heart.. for she never saw such a beauty..
she admired it every second.. so much that she forgot her own duty..

Slowly, she forgot her kith n kin, who always wanted her around.
who always took care of her.. no matter what went wrong with the world.

she neglected her father...
and was no more interested in his rhymes..
all she wanted to do was..
to see and feel the jewel all the time..


Thus the time passed by..
and every one forgot her existence,,
her father was very worried though..
at this unexpected turn of events...

he wanted to teach her a lesson...
and enlighten her with the secret of happiness..
and so he sent her to prison..
where she had nothing but the jewel and darkness..


Where are you my jewel.. the princess cried..
but in all the darkness and vacuum.. she was soo afraid..
though she had her jewel, her life became nightmare..
but all the lifeless jewel could do was give her an empty stare..

and then she realised, the glitter which was soo amazing.
Without the light to see, all its beauty was just nothing.
She desperately cried, to be set free.
Her frens n her family.. she thought gave her the real glee..

All she wanted was.. to see a ray of sun..
to meet her kith n kin.. n hav a bit of fun..

Thus ends the story of princess..
as she realises the secret of happiness..
a diamond without light to see isnt as beautiful..
like a life widout well wishers to cheer you isnt that wonderful..

For the almost null set of ppl who read this..
This piece of horribly rhyming n weirdly sounding story is
dedicated to all the ppl...
who are probably.. enjoying an awesome time of life n money.. widout appreciating their parent's hardwork..
who are probably.. taking pride in their infinite wisdom.. widout thinking of the great profs who blessed them with it..
who are probably.. enjoying the beauty of nature.. widout even wondering how great the God had to be to gift it..
in short.. who are carried away like me.. as of now..
n as for me..
the black jewel is..... :) :() :P :/ :D hmm. thats a secret..

and yeah.. if u r wondering abt why i tried to rhyme it even a bit..
i thought a boring bit of story would atleast be better if it rhymes..  :P


thanks for wasting your time.. :)
