One can count the stones
But not the ripples…the
Echoes of ones conduct
One can grab a sail
But not the gale…wisdom on
Implements of life
One can admire flame
But cannot touch…an in-
Appropriate desire
one may touch the fire in passing and not be hurt.. i too love the lines.
yes...there is a consequence... there is also a downside of too much of a good thing... when it comes to emotion and ideology, this can be hazy too...nothing is absolute in certain areas.
One can admire flame But cannot touch…an in- Appropriate desire -God, I truly love these lines! Thank you for sharing this life-changing words! :)

A well articulated and nicely encapsulated train of thoughts bristling with insight. Indeed, for every action, there's a reaction. It's call law of retributive justice. A lovely piece of poetry penned in poetic diction. A good poem indeed. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
