Touched upon by the fading waves,
the shores are sculpted away;
The sandy beach shimmers in the moonlight,
As I silently walk my way.
I look up at the stars,
as they adorn the sky tonight;
I've been traveling for long,
but my home's not yet in sight.
The sand's fine,
and every step counts twice;
for every aim, every goal,
asks for its fair price.
A stranger would appear, I wish,
and caringly hold my hand;
We would leave our footmarks,
together on this glittering sand.
Some crossed my way,
but had nothing to share;
The night's slowly passing by,
but to dream, I dare.
but to dream, I dare...

"every step counts twice,

asks its own fair price."

Thanks Raghu! :) haven't seen TZP yet :(
Excellente Effort! Liked the use of "stranger" and the final lines. I guess you have been doing lot of heart-thinking these days and exploring your horizons :)
Good show!
@Manas, thanks for the generous comments :) and yes, the 'stranger' bit is the one which took the most effort :)...it's good to know from you that albeit unintentionally, my posts seem to link to each other :)
A stranger would appear, I wish,
and caringly hold my hand;
I love the way the statement takes you on a high positive note and "I wish" makes one feel sympathetic for the poet.
Arre kedu bhai 2 good.

This poem has been very well received in Texas. One of the friends asked me to tell you that --
"every step counts twice;
for every aim, every goal,
asks for its fair price."
is almost haunting.
Cheers!
You have got a true Poet's heart. Words are just a medium. May this poet blossom day by day.
BTW a really good poem. every step counds and stranger ideas are really good.
