My Temple Poem by Bichitra Anand

My Temple

Rating: 5.0


To eulogize I try not
Pangs of your deep thought
Shiver me, sprawl me
With feeling of sins
Of missing you
Somewhere in the midway.

Everywhere I see you in shades
But nowhere I palpate your body
That billowing fire in me
Carnality embrace me restless.

I run to that centurion banyan tree
On the brink of river Kathjodi
My only Cenotaph under its canopy
I clasp it tight wrapped and teared.

I feel you younder amidst the thickets
On the sandy bed of the river
Re enforcing my belief you wave the hands
Like the flag on the temple
I regain me, a part of me, my dear
This is my temple, the only temple.

Regaining self is very interesting. This body is temple and the place we reside is also temple. Remembering God at each step is very nice. Wonderful poem is nicely crafted and shared.10
