once upon a time in the west of what was once in the east figures of speech became hazy in their lack of direction just like images being static in the lens of the inner mind sitting motionless lacking energy being inert like stones that speak their own tales in what becomes their own ways just like maps of places drawn around snaps of peoples strewn around books of their stories engulfed by little chapters of history of men, women and their children circles around circles around circles like ripples around ripples formed in a huge silent lake that had waited patiently all through winter for the spring to arrive and for the little kid from the neighbourhood to throw one little stone and flash innocent smiles at the scenes that unfolded in that singular moment of action and the coldness of the winter dissappears like the bubble that comes from the bottom of the glass to be released into the atmosphere surrounding the surface an all consuming hunger follows -- that hunger of learning and the appetite for knowing -- persuasive and pushy just like relationships, human or otherwise ever demanding, physically or otherwise and all it takes is to set the ball rolling and move on with it! ----- I guess, all I wanted is to get a grip and proceed to have a ride...

This is very Eastern and very soothing. The images and thoughts flow well and appeal to much more than the mind. Thank you for posting this poem. I enjoyed reading AND experiencing it. never try to teach a pig to sing |

Sudhir, so glad to see you posting again! Happy New Year...a bit late. Yes, sometimes you just have to give the Earthball a push, then hold on and enjoy the ride. |
