THE INVISIBLE TOUCH
(Bijoylakshmi Das, 7th June 2020)
The Blue of the Sea
The blue of the Vast,
Let me be lot
In Creation’s surrealist Art.
There’s music in the breeze
Melody all around,
The rainbow-rapt hues
Make earth spell-bound.
Light, Love and Bliss
Reverberate in ether,
The message of the Beloved
Is heard in untouched whisper.
We are all voyagers
In the same life boat,
The stormy night’s tempest
Keep us all afloat.
We are untold marvels
The whole world is one,
United we do stand
Let no one be alone.
All diverse notes
Of the one single symphony,
Nature nurtures us
In her unique Harmony.
Rivers from distant mountains seek for the Ocean’s floor,
The enlivening woodland green
Knocks at firmament’s door.
The bright golden sunrise:
The loving kiss of the sky,
The moonlit mirth of the night
On its lap we all lie.
The blossoms from Paradise
Herald our Dawn,
The sun-spangled rapture
Ushers into the magnificent morn.
All discordant notes
Please do keep aside,
You are sons of the Immortal
To Immortality you have to rise.
You were born in Bliss
To Bliss you must return,
Write your Bliss-rapt chapter
In this short earthly sojourn.
