The Balancing Act

In the darkness of the dawn The diety stood beautiful Tears rolled down on to old rough cheeks Some Shiney kohl eyes were red rimmed The strength of prayer The majestic aura of her idol Filled energy onto the drained mind Sowing seeds of hope On to tired barren hearts The aroma of jasmine the fragrance of camphor and incense The soft soothing rays of rising sun The devotees reveled in the divinity, the serenity and the purity of her shimmering face and divine eyes

Its pretty odd !How time turns itself upside down, head over heels making one meet the same angst which one dusted off ones soul long back. But then this is why life is life and time is mysterious, it can make you laugh, cry, yearn , love and hate from the core. While traveling through lanes of time there have been times like this when I wanted to stretch out far ahead and reach out for those years , may be , stored somewhere in the pages of future which will spill out feathers of white peace and flowers of yellow happiness all around. Rushing out and running through this time phase I just want to erase out the unsoulful sands below my feet and find a way out from this existence, if I look harder I would find a small window opening on to the blank horizon .. may be !!! Standing amidst a lush green paddy field under a bright blue sky I wish I could freeze in time forever.. forever….
