With a Heavy Heart, I walked upon
Lonely, Heart deserted and thirsty
A moment of melancholy pushed the soul deep in repression
In a way pressurizing for a solution
Not knowing the way, I still walked alone
More secluded and buried deep in contemplation
Occasionally dispersing among the clouds
Misting away in evening gloom’s delight
As walked more and more, legs begged rest
I solaced my legs and wearied mind under a tree's crest
Looked upon, looked beneath, glanced all around
And Closed the eyes hoping none to surround
Various images filled my mind’s pane-
Withering leaves, evolving time, days and nights
Young and Old, Body and Soul;
Virtues and Sins; choices and changes;
I let go all of them
One after another, One over another
They flashed, disappeared and re-appeared
Until soothing breeze emanated from within
I started paying attention to this mystery within
Not in my control, Breeze flowed better and better
Making the burden of my soul lighter and lighter
I asked what is next as all appeared to be a mist
Breeze flowered out
Bridging the within and without
I am in the middle as the fragrance' let-out
Offered at the Glorious One's profound
Silence spoke the secret of the mystics
In expression subtle and exquisite
I am became my Own
In identifying with the Truth of the One who truly owns
Deciphering secret codes of silence
My heart merged with the Universal resilience
Amidst the ever moving and unmoving galaxies
I found alone again but joyously with a thirst of different buoyancy!
