A trip to India
Exhilaratingly, overwhelming
Love of motherland and family
Bonded and intertwined so tightly
In one I see the other
This bond of love sweeping in veins
Like blood enriched with countless nutrients
Nourishment for mind body and soul
Flowing deep and smooth without
Any of my visible effort.
It sustains and energies like nothing else.
Nothing can replace it.
Moving with life from place to place
This love is like a rock stable and stationary
Around it flows the water of life
Channeling to different directions.
In calm silence this great rock fills life with its sediment
In its fertile basin I plant flowers for myself
Far and wide spreads their fragrance
Wonderful poem, it's always nice to catch up with relatives.
Absolutely perfectly beautiful... no one could read this and fail to feel the draw of their own homeland.... made me homesick and I'm still at home! ! ! ! Exquisite writing!
No wonder its the lovely trip to India make the thoughts feel rejuvenated...Beautiful flow of words. Loved reading it.
Thankyou Valsa for your wonderful comment. All the emotions that you mentioned surface when one visits the homeland. So good to hear from you.
Our Motherland where we have our home and our dear ones and where our roots run deep... will remain ever green in our memory no matter wherever we are! A return to that same soil and loving abode will rejuvenate and fill us with a new energy! A beautiful write!
