THE HOLY GRAIN
I was told there is gold underneath
So I started digging the ground
I am the eternal journey man
And the gold still to be found
In this pursuit I will die,
And come again,
Million times before,
And million after in a train
I change the wrapper but inside
The same passion retain
To search out from this earth
The holy grain
Tireless am I, moving up the slope
Though lost at times,
In darks grope
Yet ever remain buoyed in hope
I was left aswirl by a powerful hand
To which I shall finally return
When the swirl is spent
Quenched at last in the Golden Tent.
OF RIVULETS & VEHICLES
A million rivulets carry water
through millions of gorges
making roaring noise at times
and change to cataracts
sometimes flow at ease
all finally moving
towards the sea
where millions of creations abide
life and death, side by side.
All the created universe
the birds, the animals,
and even small ants
hawks, cuckoos,
cocks snd peacocks
each created object is
a droplet of life,
inching towards the great ocean
to which death brings them one by one.
Here is the great pool of life
in which life and death coexistentially abide
From here the gaseous substances fly
And return to the earth
transformed into life
like tributaries, these droplets of life
hire various vehicles
and move towards the Ocean of Life.
