Magical mystical moments
I am here
Permeating your psyche
But you cannot see me
No one can
But everyone loves my company
Starting from the first cry of yours
From grandma’s lazy rocking of your cradle
To the cries of the beloved when you die
I am there
Omnipresent
Omniscient
But formless
I love all of you
My devotee
Of all races or creeds
And talk to each of you in the language you love to hear
I transport you
To the mood of your choice
To the place of your choice
To the season of your choice
Any time of the year
Any time of the day
And you are there
Oblivious to the reality
When you are with me
You forget your sorrows
Your agonies of living, toiling and crying
In my lap you fall asleep
You wake up smiling
You dance,
You play
You stick to a tedious job
And smile
Because I am with you.
I emanate
From a piece of bamboo
From the drums left from the road works
From the empty shell of the fruits and animals
From the expensive special woods
From the strings to the animal skins
From the lips of the tiny boys
To the fluttering lips of a lovers
And lift you off this world
In the dark cold midnight of the winter
You feel warm
You close your eyes
And see glorious sunsets,
Scented flowers, butterflies,
Soothing wild fountains
And you cry in joy
And hang on to me
More and more
As if there is no life without me.
