Where do these feelings come As you read a poem On watching the moon Hearing a song As though swerving in the wind Carrying notes in a tune Never played or heard What these sprinkles sparkling From heaven’s unknown bring, Swirling and singing and dancing In your lame heart, relentlessly Churning with sounds of bangles Of them Gopikas, of gokul Of nandagaon or reverberating The sounds of river yamuna's Droplets of water sprinkling On the sandy red hair of Krishna Shining as gold and copper flare As the rays from sunset bring The seven colors shining at every speck of the curly honey like Curls of His locks reflecting in his Shining and glittering eyes as He sways Swinging in the embrace of gopis And the hugs of Radhika, twining into Each other’s bend as if the world Never existed ever.. oh naïve lover boy!
On some days nothing seems to be right Sometimes things go hazy or dull Wishing it was shining bright Day goes helter skelter No reason or rhyme Don't complain Grin and bear Dreamer Gleam!
He said truth is one Truth is one for one and all He said Universe is seldom truth It changes Spring or Fall He said even when one is small As a Lilliput or standing huge and tall The Universal truth is one, For Kings, Rabbis, or drones Workers, soldiers or Queens What is wealth if not kept Stored in cells or underground, It is not treasure until found A millennium until swept Even then one does not know If it is used to build or battled With unkempt persona Worn and torn undertrodden For ages with no wise or wane Those with humility or pride All resting in Universal truth That Truth prevails all alone ..
