A soul thats mine

Have you ever listened to the falling rain
As somebody has truly said, it has an argot in its vein


Have you ever seen a pauper kid
The one who runs down the street


Have you ever seen a bird with a broken wing
Trying to fly in the sky with all its zeal


Have you ever seen a tear rolling down your cheek
Leaving a mark as it passes your beak


Have you ever seen a dew drop on a leaf
On a moonlit night when the stars were at its peak


Have you ever seen a white cloud swaying across the sky
As the deadly wind bend its arms and give out a cry


Have you ever seen a flower bloom from it bud
A beauty eternal shining in all its pride.


Have we seen these things in time
The simplest of moments but the rarest to find
