Whisper

Like that sculpture from the recluse cave Holding onto the flitting rays of a lone candle Steps on the cold ripples over the singing stream Hearing a whisper that sounded like a promise Takes a deep breath, in the reflection Gazes at her first expression. Written on Thursday, November 04, 2004

I was deeply shocked to read about Shama Futehally Chowdhury’s passing away today, in the newspaper.

Like thats

Like that sweet music of flute playing behind that mountain Like that village which still exists with an open door concept Like that grand procession of a beautiful princess Like that shepherd lying in the middle of the green field Like that spinner who decides to buy bangles for his wife Like that postman who […]

Deciding to put all the older entries into this one so here i go. Want to keep all in one place. When i read through them I don’t believe i wrote it now and then..but still nice to read as if opening up an old treasure trunk kept in my cellar.

Hi everyone

I believe that one thinks much more soundly if the thoughts arise from direct contact with things, than if one looks at things with the aim of finding this or that in them. – Vincent van Gogh A few this and that are here straight from the thinking and i hope the thinking remain as […]
