Moirai

At the first touch... Resonance!

Each element pushing forth

to meet its maker

with resounding silence,

in absolute surrender.

The tapestry of life rewoven

multi-hued like a sparkling diamond,

as sorrows of a million lifetimes

shatter and dispel the darkness.

Peace,hope and love emerge.

Then comes the exaltation

of the new life given,

for the past buried.

An inane sense of fulfillment,

a joy, pure and eternally sublime.

Euphoria

As I lie beneath the canopy

of an ancient banyan tree

listening to the rustling leaves

as peaceful as can be

A million stars in the ink black sky

seen through boughs as old as time

listening to the twittering birds

one with nature, a view sublime

The weathered face and tireless limbs

the secrets and lifetimes of many kings

worshiped with incense and vermilion

carrying hopes of millions on strings

A sanctuary without judgement or scorn

where dreams take flight, where ideas are born

In the embrace of this wonder do I lay

lulled to sleep by a million whispered prayers
