Parallels

image

The clouds have known earth and sky,
                                                     Rain to reach the grounded tree.
                                                 Many births witnessed and so many lives;                                      
There, life draws illusion of parallels….

              Myth leaves silently
              And they meet, coming alive;
                              In each the other lives.

Tanoura

Tauora1

A tanoura dancer on the move

Swirled the wind;

Spinning as if the axis

Of sublime world;

Spinning as if responsible

For the world that’s balanced;

Spinning to the rhythm

That only his world could feel.

Coloured costume whirled

A magic, only his integrity could read

And that’s where he tuned

To unite heaven and earth.

The hypnotic move mesmarised

As I sat still and the desert lay calm.

Harmony

A resolution to connect,
I took on New Year day
To connect, really connect;
To hear their voices,
Recollecting their facial expressions,
To Feel the happiness and share the memories,
From some teachers to friends…
I had to hear them all.
A “Hello”, a message of
“Very kind of you to have remembered…”
My teachers’ said.
A “Hello”, a message of
“Hey, I have all the time for you…”
My dear friends’ said.
Years without communication, yet connected
My heart and soul in harmony….
