Have you ever herded humans to LOVE?
I have traveled a thousand miles
By foot to reach my BELOVEDz home
Have you ever bowed down and surrendered?
I have kissed the feet of my BELOVEDz
From the center of my heart
To the place where my BELOVEDz stays
Though seems from mountains to the ocean
But the stream of water flows uphills
There is this small town
In the oceanic blue scape
With humid tropics and scented rain
In the curvature up-down hill roads
With green trees lined by the fields
Between the town and
The destination to no where
There is the tiny abode -
My BELOVEDz lives
Up one flight of stairs to heaven
Where the wind blows stronger
With every rain gush hitting the verandah grill
My BELOVEDz stands, watching her life
Through the dogs and cats raining skies
Oh..! worrying about LOVE and
Those uncertainties beyonds life
As I stand over there -
Below her grilled verandah window
Drenched in rain, pouring over...
My filthy 1000 miles walked torned dress
Yes that is the place I find my BELOVEDz
Standing near the window grill -
Like Shakespeare's when Romeo and Zuliet meet
She looks at me and smiles
Was it me - her LOVER she was waiting for?
Like Romeo I can't climb up the grill -
She knows...
Thus she runs down the flight
Jumping down steps - skipping 2-3 at a time
And rushes out to embrace me
Within my arms, hugs and kisses
Yes - I am the LOVER she waited for...!
For us,
Loving each other
WE realize... now
LOVE is nurturing
LOVE is penance
LOVE is wisdom
LOVE is patience
LOVE is compassion
LOVE is waiting
LOVE is courage
LOVE is our SOUL
LOVE is our ONENESS
That day in the rains
If someone saw us like that
Entangled within each other
They will smile and say:
LOVERS - Under in rain
*LOVERS - became "ONE"
