Yesterday I was full of emotions
With the thoughts of old acquaintances
Just couldn’t take anymore than most
Asking Him why must I always Trust?
Memories as old as several lifetimes
Flowing like river Mississippi in floods
Neither Harvey not Katrina
Could compare with the turmoil
I may have slithered in my memories lost
Like the rivers’ flood gates were opened for crest
His thoughts and remembrances crawling into
My flowing thoughts, a history as if
Flowing out of palms, right in front of the eyes!
No not sadness, nor is that joyous,
Bursting into flames of memories
Long buried, it seems as if yesterday
Although I deem it’s not any holiday
I reminisce day or night, not knowing
It is a lifetime may be a quarter century
Or nearly a spree, sinking into myself
Counting, ready, one, two and three
River Nile to Jordan, and beyond Mississippi
My thoughts flow as if it is all the way Ganges..
Oh river Brazos, my sister and my ethos
You know me perfectly, how I yearn to see yo
Every micro particle of sand under my feet
Walking across the river bed or on the sea shore
Stars looking down as I lay down sleeping
Staring at your shimmering shining sparkling galore
Oh lovely maiden of sleeplessness and brilliance
Sharing the stories of your splendor
You keep me smiling,, living and staying
Even as I miss Him, my knight in shining armor
Here comes the delight, when I saw a message
On one of the platform, caused by a glitch
It was a surprise, to see that he thought
Of me or my presence, even if fleeting
My memories, gasped in disbelief and joy
But I dare not wish him, it does not appear wiser
Or sane thing to get back in the narrow path
Binding us into blissful sorrows, it is only nice
To say I am sorry, was that a hacker, sharing
A hugging pair in a chain of valentine’s wishing
Neither him nor I were rude to break the silence
We oathed to keep, unspoken and unsung
Millennia may pass, and lives may come and go
But we stand for our solitude to keep the life going
Silently the Mississippi River goes on rolling
These stories are just some playful ideas of someone
Higher and superior to all living beings
As the world keeps moving and dreams keep shattering
Only to realize, this is the way of the Param Atman Aum...
