To Banyan my love....

Where is the seed that I had sown
crying or laughing? Did she grew

I recollect the days#

Her body was fit to manifest the eternal
Inside the womb of mother's soil
A body took shape,
Enjoying the god's symphony
Consuming a little food mother hath taken

And time came with vociferous force,
A methodical plan god had drawn
Exerting the joy of pressure, earth had cried,
Tearing the womb apart, she gazed at her mother....
A moment of stillness brushed the air
Joy of tears gushed in earth's quivering face
Rain touched the sand
Blessing the new born divine

Possessing an immortal consciousness
Forgetting the future ahead
With a tempting smile stick on her face
She was drawn to her karmic laws
Before the play was enjoyed by the child
Naming ceremony was envied by all,
Mother earth whispered in the ears, 'Banyan'.

Banyan, A will she combated to crush the tamasic force
A resemblance of divine, her body was
An errant marvel she carried around
Budha and Krishna felt solitude in her shade,
Omniscient god proud at her growth,
Mother earth possessed an imperishable happiness,
Amused at her daughter's beauty.

John, Where is the seed that I had sown?

John#

"Before the youth days hath passed
A human came running
She had sensed the death knell of greed
Criying to the mother
Begging for some more time
For ozone layer was picking up pace
And the work that was destined
Remained unfinished

When she was bruised
A cry was heard aloud, neighborhood had heard
knife was plunged at her heart?
Stopping her cry
Keeping her grief to her own soul
Praying for the killer
She succumbed to human's greed
An ephemeral joy hit the human face"


Nooooooooo............

John, Where is the seed that I had sown
Where is my beloved?
In the timber wood store
Or another table for dinner?

i could feel the crush of the blow, hariksna...heartbreaking, but still beautiful as a table. lovely write...this written from my cherry desk...human greed, must be forgiven, until the Ents return, at least.

A mixture of powerful emotions your words evoke.
The one-ness of everything will always be on the table.
Don't know how else to describe. As always thought provokinghandshake
