I am happy !

I am happy !
Not just because
the rose stem I took to taking its last breath
has finally managed to suck some glucose
and will surely dance to the tune of spring...

but also because..,
I played scrabble on the azure blanket
& won the match between stars and me.
saw the silhouettes of my dear ones
in the silver lining covering the clouds
smiling and blessing me
with occult powers...

I am happy !
Not just because I noticed
the jewel of the sky is still on duty
pulling aside the curtain of clouds
peeping n confirming from time to time
the well being of God's dream...

but also because,
I was amazed to view
the boughs of the giant banyan tree
are so much ardent to meet thy feet...

I am happy !
Coz I can feel the pulsating connection
between the symphony of the thunderous orchestra
and the jingles of the mountain birds
singing after heavy rains...

I am happy !
Coz I am in communion
with the grandeur of nature's flute
with the calligraphy of river's path
with the breath of all creatures
with the spirit of the only One...

i found u!

i stretched my arms till the finger tips
but couldn't make it to your robe
i called you in my highest pitch
your reply was but no heard...
i strained my eyes
wandering days and nights
just to catch a glimpse of yours
couldn't make it though, thought all in vain
coz couldn't catch up with your own...

i tried to ask your where-abouts
from the red-cheeked rose
he said, "Darling, don't loose heart,
you'll soon find your muse"
even inquired by stopping a falcon...
please help me out.. show me the way to him
he was in a hurry though.. had to catch his prey
still exchanged my complaining looks
with a gentle smile
and as he flew, didn't forget to choose
saying, "Don't loose heart dear,
you'll soon find your muse."

my last hope now,
was the ever flowing river
who must be having the age-old vision
to see through things, to weigh matters of heart
so surely could guide me to my pole star...

i sat beside him, poured my heart out
recited all my helpless moves..
suddenly, i saw in its moist soil
a tear of mine loosing itself,
flowing, rolling to make it to you
and finally , the eternal bliss was
when he was lost- completely in you...

"i found my muse", "i found my muse"
exclaimed i with joyous water
running down my brows
"You are in me!" i have finally found you
beating in the depths of my heart...
and with this realization,
i could feel a glow in my bosom
warming me, transmuting my languid thoughts,
now distinctly opening their wings
in the tranquility of thy soul...
