The Alchemist

A young boy who dream to master the world
Talking to his father,”I want to be a shepherd” he told
Father agreed with his decision and brought some sheep’s
He took his books and sheep’s,then left home in cool breeze

He started to travel through plains and hills along with herd
Discovered new and new things which he never thought
Each day became so special under the clear eternal sky
He forgot all his pain,hardship and begun to feel high

He exchaged his books and read all his way
Though he was robbed on journey ,he never swayed
He begun to focus more on sheep’s and learnt new routes
And was haunted by recurring dream which was truth

A Gypsy women read his destiny
Told him about treasure under Pyramid
By this,he was both surprised and shocked
Avoid the merchant daughter to tried his luck

He met an old man,who spoke of his dream
Said few wisdom words which made him scream
The old man told about the omen,language and different things
Gave him two crystal stone and sought their relations and links

He thought hard and made his final decision
Was cheated by stranger in a distant land
He had no sheep’s to canel the trip to desert
So,he kept on moving forward in the way the king taught

He learned the Arab language and worked in crystal shop
Worked hard,collected some money and set off to search treasure
He met an English man,who was looking for an Alchemist
Concentrated more on his aim and focused less on things that matter least

The Camel driver shared his part of life
Latter,the boy realised everything as one type
The Carravan arrived at Oasis without any trouble
Though,there was rumor of tribe war on desert

All begun to breathe a sign of relief
He knew he had to continue his trip
He found his love,Fatima,near by pond
Realised the strength and value of their bond

She told him to continue moving forward
Afterall, desert girl knew how to cope with hard
Once he was sitting on stone,he got an instincts
Learnt about the danger which was around to ring

Meanwhile, the warrior came and tested him
All those things were like an illusion to him as that seemed
He acted bravely since he realized death wasn’t far
His work saved others which paid him with reward

The warrior proved himself,infact as an Alchemist
Took him to his previous journey of Pyramid
They encountered trouble with tribesmen
Solved eachone with the use of sane

The alchemist left the boy almost near the Pyramid
He reached there and started to dig
Some abandon warriors came to him and beat
The leader spoke of same dream,but he couldn’t make it

He didn’t step back although he suffered pain
Finally returned back to his own country,Spain
Followed upto the ruin chruch where he slept druing his shepherd days
Dug under the ground,found treasure,at last all his efforts were paid.
