The big bang!

Consciousness remained silent for long,

Until the beats of the damru played an ethereal song.

And lo and behold, wave after wave, the creation sprouted,

In the Divine's imagination, the existence of infinite rooted.

Whilst vivid colors of dazzling beauty enamoured all souls,

Each picturing themselves in a different role,

From whence they came, became forgotten to all souls,

Thence, remained hidden the fact that all were parts of one stupendous whole!

The hills are alive with the sound of music!

There it stood with open arms,

Luring me in with its enchanting psalms.

So, from its exalted summits, I took a leap of faith,

Thence in its calm greens, my soul freely bathed!

Drawn towards it clarion call, 

From my bosom, my heart fled away,

On its ethereal melodious tune, 

It just wished to dance and play!

And now along with those meandering shadows, 

My soul wanders too,

And with its every heaving breath resonates

My heart beats too!

Base of life

Layer over layer I lay,
To create a taller tower,
Yet no matter how high I make,
I wish it were even higher.

All size and shape and grain, I try,
Tirelessly I seek, my perfect base.
But never it seems my find would be so big,
that would finally put an end to this chase.

A cruel art balancing it seems, 
is this eternal play,
As time just casually ticks past, 
without even a moments stay.

So, forever the question remains, 
What is it that you would pick?
Would you head out to horizon and seek some more,
or with whatever you've got, you'd just stick?
