THE TEARS OF THE SEA

THE TEARS OF THE SEA

The breeze with an aroma of sadness slowly covered his face and kissed him with its salty lips. He sat there like a statue in the lonely cold beach. The waves are touching and tickling as if to wake him from the sleep of sorrow. The sands underneath him was crying and praying for him.
It was on the very same morning he lost his wife and child. Janet was prettier than ever that morning. She looked like an angel in her sky-blue swimsuit and john was laughing loudly like any two year old. It is a warm day. He was looking at them and felt like on top of the world. He had everything. This is heaven this beautiful beach, his beautiful wife and his lovely son if this is not heaven what is heaven.

Suddenly behind them like a huge man suddenly standing up a gigantic wave towered up and licked up everything in the shore. He saw a glimpse of the golden hair the blue dress and before he stands up every thing was calm again and every thing gone.

A wet blanket of coldness engulfed the heaven. The earth looked like burned ash. All colors were drained from it .It was more than 10 hours now and he is still sitting there looking blankly to the now black sea. His feet rooted in the cold sand

Then he saw her far away in the see. She smiled at him. Those rare smiles she used to smile when they were all alone. Then he heard john calling in his pale voice PAPA….the boy is giggling. He walked slowly to the sea. Far away his heaven is shining. He walked towards it .The stars closed their eyes. The night cried in vain
