A Cascade Of False Fables...


Bulk of water gushed down...
a sweet noise it made...
he moved ahead, i tried to stop him...
he dint check his feet but i couldnt hold him...
oops, i was wrong...
my intuition was a fallacy...
for it was treacherous but...
the pebbles were diamonds...
each one bigger than the other...
i too was stricken and let him go...
and he moved on...

he grabbed one, thinking he will collect all...
but i know he was not greedy...
he was white in colour,just like a diamond...
no one saw it as he was just one of them...
he never bothered...
and he moved on...

dropped the diamonds...
to feel the gushing bulk...
he could smell it...
the eyeballs shimmered with that clear water...
had a magnetic touch but at times it dint look real...
to both of us...
but there was no way back...
he was very far,far from the shore...
the dropped diamonds had turned pointed pebbles...
and he had to move on...

all of a sudden, diamonds turned black...
he couldn understand...
everything was still except the bulk...
making the sound creepy...
everything was true but hard to believe...
he was inches from the white water
but v were wrong,it was black...

he weeped wet and drowned dry...
for, he had made a mistake...
u see, i warned him not to dive...
in that cascade...
for i knew that was a cascade...
a cascade of false fables...
