Silence in the woods
Simmers in the ears
Like lava in phantom hills
The sound of the cricket
Serenade earths embryo
Walking alone
In the mid hot sun
The shadow of the eyes
Following the soul
The internal song
Heard unto the destiny
No one is found with in sight
Stationed at the doorway of the forest
And the periphery of the village horizon
Whether the palm tree
Rooted in the banyan tree
Or the banyan tree entrenched in the palm tree
Like temples of local deities
A quiet traverse
In quest embracing the birds seed tweet
Which drew the euphoria
of diversity in oneness …
