a little bird fights its fight darting into the sky pushed back time and yet again from patient trials, it learns to spread wings and glide through crests of unseen waves to revel in demystified airs for, against the wind’s might there’s no equal fight learning is in accepting the strength of forceful gusts to gain from it to drift the course thus learning to fly when darkness offers to swallow large portions of shadows the body walks away to step into the light enamoured by bright the fruit just seems to know when it is just ripe as it is given away by the tree that gave it life a sense of detachment smallness perhaps felt but soon it finds another purpose as it rolls in the farmer’s fruit-picking basket inadvertently gaining a small parcel of education, I bob agreement nods: there’s no perfect time to gain even a spoonful of wisdom ~~~~~~~ sorry friends, I have been really busy and hence away for such a long time... hope you all have been keeping well... **gyaanam -> Sanskrit for knowledge, education, learning and in Hindi the word is gyaan |

What a wonderful way to re-enter this home after a long absence. Missed you, friend. Much wisdom within this piece. Namaste, Sudhir. And for India and all the other countries affected by the tsunami, I continue to light candles of hope and healing. |

Loved these lines: the fruit just seems to know when it is just ripe as it is given away by the tree that gave it life Nice pic, too!  Corinne |
