Sky to Earth

My mind is flying
with those capricious clouds
that go up and then come down
quickly to tickle my heart…

My eyes and ears
send signals to the entire body
how lush and beautiful
everything is
in the nature’s unique spectrum
of love…

My body gets filled
with some strange sensation
and starts preparing itself
for the festive mood…

My crazy mind
searches for the right words,
and my heart helps me
string them together,
to express the overall feelings
in a tune that sings life
from this earth to that sky…

I’m sharing a song which is very close to my heart. Though the song is in Hindi, the theme can be summed up as under:
Which poet’s imagination is this wonder, i.e. the nature? Who is the artist, who has created and decorated green earth, blue sky, mountain-peaks, spiral valleys, flowers, trees and colors in all four directions? See the purity of nature and embrace it.

P.S. Today is the day of festivities. Lohri, Bhogi, Makar Sankranti, Khichdi, Pongal, Bihu etc are being celebrated across the country. Basically these are harvest festivals and mark the sun changing direction of trajectory towards the north, entering the Capricorn zodiac sign. It signifies the end of winter.

May these festivals bring joy and happiness, and spread peace, love and togetherness all over…

–Kaushal Kishore
