This is the second installment to the "Loving Sai" series. It is about the last week of our life, the short trials we have faced, the uncertainty and fear of the unknown, and our love making it an exciting adventure.

Seeking knowledge.

A short lyrical thought.

When you fall just get right back up and trying again.

When all the things you need to do are done, there is always something else to take their place.

Written by Elana Zablocki.

Recently I read a book of short stories titled "An Evening in Lucknow" written by the well-known novelist, scriptwriter, journalist and film-maker Khwaja Ahmad Abbas. Inspired by one of his short stories "The Umbrella", I have penned this narrative. This is also my humble dedication to this remarkable writer who published seventy-three books during his life-span of seventy-three years from 1914 to 1987.

I wrote this poem after watching the movie, "On Golden Pond". I had never seen this movie until years after its release, but there was one scene between Henry Fonda and Kathryn Hepburn where they were watching two little ducks swim in peace on the pond near their home and it reminded me of how true love is found in the beauty of nature and between two little ducks who always swim in pairs because they love each other that much! If you ever have felt like love is just out of your reach, this poem is a reminder to never give up hope.
