My Flute Poem by Kolitha Lelwala

Thou hast taken me to heaven
Thou fillest me with joy.
Thou an empty vessel with a bamboo coat
Me too an empty mind with flesh ‘n bones
With water and minerals also.
Thou givest charming melodies.
It's great how, thou doest respond to
The touch of my finger tips.
Thou doest grant divine tone colours.
Thou healest broken hearts.
Thou catchest bee-eaters ears
They chirp in their ecstasy.
Thou doest tranquilize cows
With thy baritone moo.
Thou doest bring me into a trance of purity
Thou healest the diseased with an elixir of musical water.
Being my sibling for many decades
Thou hast absorbed my warmth
Sharing thine spotless love
Thou hast filled me with joys.
Thou an empty vessel with bamboo coat
Doest conserve thine emptiness
Filling me with joy, giving me charming melodies
Thou takest me into a trance of purity.
