I am visiting the lovely northern region of India and spent an afternoon on the banks of the Ganges in the Himalayan foothills. It was a very beautiful experience and I found a lovely place for writing a poem.
I Am In Between
the grace of the water
the smile of the clouds
And I am in between.
Himalayan birth canal of green
ocean of sky for its mythic decent
And I am in between.
this River Goddess to millions
this heavenly blue blanket for all
And I am in between.
on a grey stone seat.
Mantras on the shore
majestic hills lush with trees
carry on long after, born eons before.
My dissolving white sweet
laughs of splashing boys
melting blue candle
all fade like fleeting wave-noise.
And I am in between.
