Analysis of The beautiful face.
The beautiful face.
I was travelling by train.
It was a reserved one.
When it stopped at a station.
A girl got in.
Her kiths and kins bade her good bye.
She was alone.
Suddenly I found,
she had no eye.
I was sitting by the window,
watching the ouside scenarios.
The girl was sitting opposite of me,
just before one row.
I asked the girl about her destination.
She starled and answered me,
she was returning from her, uncle's house,
after a birthday celebration.
She would get off near by station.
There she lived with her parents.
It was a place of village.
She informed me without interruption.
I noticed while she was talking,
her teeth were sparkling,
like sunlit water of brook
which is rippling.
She was blind
and there were no use of her eyes,
still it attracted me
and obsessed my mind.
Suddenly she got up
as she had to get off.
Then took her bag and baggages,
on her lap.
She left the place
but I stayed with her memories.
Till now I never came across,
such a beautiful face.
