a bright red top spun around itself in an spirited exercise to dance the ballet while the young one who set it loose kept urging the toy to not stop dancing six other kids clapped four of them jumped two of them shrieked but one of them was still with palms clasped feeling energy around him yet in devoted attention then in a sudden motion he threw a rope on the feet of the spinning toy and with one smart pull lifted it heavenwards and down she came to land easily on his palm continuing her motion as if answering his prayers offered in loving devotion six other kids stopped clapping and with wide open mouths stared at the bright red thing as if overawed by the obedience of the toy to the will of its master of course they were too young to know that force as Love but, one kid felt the force as he wrapped his other palm around the bright red top bringing her spin to a stop brought her to his lips and kissed her cheek before sprinting away enjoying new-found glee he never forced her to spin again but when the soft breeze flows and the sun sets in its romantic best when crimson marries bright red the spirited dance continues in the chambers of his soul and the lifeless bright red top spins as if self evoked and very much alive |

Sudhir, this felt like a life lesson revealed to me by a master... and come to think of it... it was! Wonderfully spiritual and descript -- left me with a hard-to-describe feeling of a privileged witnessing. Well done, Sir! -MVS You CAN make a difference: http://educate-yourself.org/ [This message has been edited by MARK V SHELDON (03-31-2003 09:19 AM).] |

Thank you so very much Mark, Nancy and Karilea... You are all so very kind... I have already submitted two and with all your support, both have been selected. I would rather that others also have their works showcased in 'our reflections'... I am sure, if we continue like this, Ron will think of another book to follow... then maybe I will submit this one or maybe with some luck, I will write better ones...  Thanks, once again... for all your support... kindness and generosity... Regards, Sudhir [This message has been edited by Sudhir Iyer (03-31-2003 10:27 AM).] |
