penning a poem
spring rain unfurls
a peacock’s cry
*
a purple sunbird
upside-down on a hibiscus
ah! the sweetness
*
first light
brewing ginger tea
a koel’s song
*
garden moths—
the streetlight glows
in the darkness

Music of the Soul
Looking for a book on my bookshelf, I scan and touch my beloved friends of years past. My fingers gently brush their spines. I find “The Singer and His Song” a biography of Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore. I listen to his lyrical Bengali song sung by the author Reba Som on the accompanying CD. The words are barely understood, yet my eyes close and I enter a world of magic.
snow-edged
the wayside stream
still gurgles
