Dull days...

What is happening?
No energy, no creativity!
Not anything worth
coming out...!

Drowsiness all through!
When will sleep be
enough for me?

Old friendship are
sprouting anew...
Some have almost 
faded out...
Some are still 
on the wait...

New friendships too
are not that scarce!

Even after thirty plus years
in ministry 
am still struggling with
my little faith!

Not quite ready to
give up for anything!
Going strong in my
convictions day after day.

There is fire very much
within...
That is not glowing
well enough...

Let me at least keep
that fire burning...

The Hiding beauty…



The Hiding beauty…
Wonder did I
Asking myself
 Why at all people hide behind!
Only then I realized that
There could be a corollary to this:
Someone might be
Watching, rather
Observing someone!
Yes, you stole my admiration
Hiding behind!
When I could see
Everyone in the congregation,
Rather everyone one was
Beholding at the ‘celebrant’
You alone were ‘hiding’ behind!
Yes, that forced my admiration!
Was it unbecoming of a ‘celebrant’?
Who cares, but
Would love to consider that
A matter of admiration of beauty,
Enhanced by the ‘hiding,’
Rather shall I say ‘shying’!
Is not Divinity
‘Satyam’, ‘Sivam’, ‘Sundaram’?
You were bestowed aplenty
With the last of the divine shade!
Your shying smile
Literally captivated me!
Was adoring the beauty from afar!
Seeing that not in the congregation
Left me ‘troubled’ indeed!
It is only a tribute to Beauty,
Both outward and inward equally.
Keep it up knowing that
It is a shadow of divinity real.
To ......., the hiding beauty…
