Tragedy of Disbelief.

He was a magician; he could turn stone to Gold.
People looked at him, as if their breaths were on hold.

A chisel and a hammer was all, what he would need,
He would work so hard, till his hands would bleed.

He was called by the king to make a statue of his wife,
His wife for the king which was dearer than his life.

The sculpture was happy, but the king gave a condition,
If the statue wouldn’t be good, there would be a situation.

If the sculpture could not make a statue as beautiful as the queen.
The Statue will be broken & the sculpture would never be seen.

The stage was set and all things were made ready,
The queen was handed over to the sculptures custody.

It took him over a year and 172 days,
After such a time they came out of the place.

The queen & the statue were kept side by side,
And slowly from both of them the curtain would rise.

There was pin drop silence as all were so curious,
But when the curtains were raised, the king was furious.

With his naked sword, towards the statue he rushed,
With all his power he swung & thrashed.

To his surprise he could see the statue bleed,
It was not the statue but the queen indeed.

What the sculpture had done, was never thought.
He had made a thing more beautiful than GOD.

To the kings dismay he was foxed by his eyes.
Instead of the statue he killed his loved wife.

What our eyes make us see may not always be true,
But before taking a step be sure where you want to go.
