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.

Emblazoned…

droplet

Afloat, away, far afield

Emblazoned….

The pure, pearly water droplet

Set sail on the stray lotus leaf

Strangers…

When the wind hampered its path

The drop scattered to unite;

When the sun reached out

The drop magnified the green;

A little blow to one

Saviour, they could not be to the other.

When they perish

Unite they, being one with Nature

Said Soul to Body

“Let’s remain afloat, away far afield,

And I remain emblazoned…”
