Boiling sea water, lumps of salt
salt of freedom,
flavor of decades
Freedom

free not in mind

Gandhi...
half naked fakir in loin drape
struggle, salt
non cooperation
non violence
Yerwada Jail,
division, bloodshed
midnight’s freedom
fruit – bitter sweet
At the end
a fanatic
shot and killed Gandhi
Hey Ram, a prayer...
Experiment with truth- bitter?
Bitter..........but for those who experiment have different taste bud It is sweet for them.for materialistic it is bitter.good reminder to those who have forgotten whatis truth..good write
those who take the path less travelled, have strength of their convictions. Gandhi's experiments with truth lead to his death, but i guess he had no regrets. people on a mission do not care about consequences. Rema good reminder of his life and travails. Mamta
Rema, I love your write.. Gandhi gave and as so will expontentially grow for decades more.. ideologies and hope for truth... experimental or otherwise - it is a leading pathway.. aroha Deana xx
End is inevitable, sweetness is hackneyed, those who taste bitter stand away from crowd, here the experiment though bitter is paradoxically sweet…thought provoking piece …. Abha
Gandhiji and you selected this title very carefully....Not at all misleading... Touching composition.
If ever a person was worth his 'salt' it was Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. His belief in non-violence and truth whilst living a modest and self-sufficient life must be a worthy beacon to all. Indeed a fitting tribute to a great man. Rgds, Ivan
