Truth of Life

27 Sep

I didn’t see your beauty
I didn’t notice you
I was so busy
Thinking about the day ahead of me.

When I looked at trees
I saw the lumber in them
When I looked at the sun
I was annoyed by its heat
When I looked at Moon
I was wondering when I can be there.

The whispering of trees
The song of birds
The colorful flowers
The joyful sun
I didn’t see anything.

When I was in my hurry
I hit you in your head
Make you crippled and half dead
When I took you in my arms
I wished to give you the life back
I was helpless, dear bird!

When I stand in that stillness
Truth of life opened
The warmth of nature covered me
I found myself.

Fragrance of seven dollars

31 Oct

We were sitting in the bus waiting for it to go to the nearby market. My kids were with me. They love traveling in the bus. They can see all kinds of people and look outside. I could see the bus driver smoking outside as if it was not enough smell inside the bus. He was looking at his watch sometimes. People are walking here and there. Buses were coming and going.

I saw a woman coming inside the bus. She might be nearing her thirties. She was wearing some loose cloths which made her look heavier than she is. She seemed like she has some developmental disabilities. Read the rest of this entry »

So lost….

29 Sep

When life brings sufferings as well as joys

I went to that lap always

When I am cranky and moody

I ran to that hand for a hug

I am so lost without that

So lost. Read the rest of this entry »

All are happening for best

14 Mar

All-best-pic

My heart was filled with sorrow

Like the clouds of the sky

And there was nothing except tears

About the cross I bore.

I wandered like a child in strange places

To find out that distant solace of mine Read the rest of this entry »

Precious to have you there

14 Aug

Alone

It is so precious to have someone

Care about me

When you rebuke, I may not like it

I may not even do what you said. Read the rest of this entry »
