Once my house was full of people
Both young and old …
of diverse opinions and myriad temperaments.
Voices and sounds echoed all around,
...
The fair face of the earth glows softly in the darkness of infinity,
Held aloft magically in the deep swirling oceans.
The brown blanketed in rich green,
Clouds in varying colours hover on its brow.
...
The magic of Divinity I bring with me
from the lands of beyond.
With the blessings of the Gods,
I arrive …
...
Neither her attire nor her demeanor
spoke of a life of riches..
Nor reflected one of abject penury,
Just another old woman.…
...
Ever since I was born,
You have been with me
As I grew,
Your shadow over me lengthened
...
In suspended animation of Now
Why can't I just BE?
With no baggage of the past
And no worry for the future
...
Far away, dark clouds gather,
Despondency fills my heart.
Far away, the red sun drowns in the ocean,
A deep sadness prevails.
...
Music pours forth from the taut strings of a sitar,
under the nimble fingers of the player.
...
The parched ground
with wounds as wide as craters,
stared at the relentless, harsh blue.
Leafless, huge trees exposed their skeletons.
