On That Day

on-that-day

I didn’t wish to be there

On that day.

But somehow I am here

As of today.

The clouds told the sea;

The wind told the palms.

But the carpet grass rejoiced,

As the shadow stayed poised.

Have I known you, ever?

Every day, newer?

Roots shallow or deep, I gather

We live in today, together.

Said the greens to the woods

As air, water and light witnessed.

Dancer in ecstasy

Unbound.

Sand dunes infinite

Liberated.

Stumbled not once.

Heart and soul meet

In the boundless

When the sun sets to a moon rise.

The song I hear deep down

The one I wish to sing;

The tune played all along while

The lyrics framed pictures around.

And then I see myself singing

Blissfully and knowingly;

Through a truly happy inner voice

The song I hear deep down.
