Universal Harmony
7-8 December 2015
If I am but you
Twining mirror within coils
And you are but me
Would it then matter
That I slowly pass you by
In mismatching trains?
Synchronised movements
Both winding and unwinding
Directional knot
The road to nowhere
Is paved with slow intentions
Fast deaths of morrows
I know of a cliff
Bordering the Caspian seas
Where tilting brings height
Perspectives in thoughts
People of the shadows roam
Between lost and found
They crawl through the caves
While you fly in summer skies
To that road nowhere
I curse renewed flights
While maps of Time fail my reach
The limited sights
Tired raindrops ebb
Shrivelled outposts of the soul
Withered in the sun
In Time we will breed
With the tar and our blood’s flow
The crimson highways
Rain and sun will kiss
Upon plains of the Tatars
As shadows dissolve
Elementary
Universal Harmony
Spins a web of souls
Beyond this You and I – Rumi
Look Within – Rumi
I am only the House of your Beloved – Rumi
‘Tired raindrops,’ sigh, such a beautiful image. One can almost imagine their plight. It’s like the creation of universal love. I’m now suitably awake and ready to start my day after your beautiful words. x

Thank you sweet Annie. Much love to you and a glorious day to go with that 🙂 I just finished the seventh chapter of the Spirit Lovers and methinks there is going to be a slight uproar feom some about this one. I already received a few angry reactions by email to the notions in the story but many seem to like it so I continue writing it between fact and fiction if I may say so

Much love to you too, Geetha.
Angry reactions? Send them my way. I shall take a look right away. Be right back.

I read from start to finish and imagined myself in a place between here and heaven. I pictured your mother as the mother of the earth and you, somewhere between human and spirit. You’ve worked incredibly hard and I admire your spirit and determination. I’m looking forward to the next chapter….therefore you’ve got my attention and that’s a tall order for anyone. Superb, Geetha. I love the way you can combine reality with imagination and endless possibilities. x

Thank you Thomas, what a lovely compliment; each time I think you can’t do better you never fail to amaze me. I wandered in my head after I wrote that Senryu in response to yours and that is the result of my wanderings 🙂
