The lake and the waves...


The water fought hard with the waves
Trying to hold its own reality
On the surface
Waves won

Deep inside
Lake withdrew deeper
Left the waves to play
With the air, earth, water
and Fire

Suddenly there was a splash
A rock solid thought
Plunged deeper
Calming with its force
The waves, the water, the earth
And the fire

Lake opened itself
Felt the rock sebmerged within
Unlocked the deepset desire
And merged with the consciouness
The space within the thought
Lake
Water
earth
Fire
and its own deepest desire

Om Namah Shivaya

dear mr shashidhar,

there is a word in bengali..'chitrakalpa'... it is a tatsama word. you are probably familiar with it .... and if not familiar ,surely you can guess the meaning.

the 'older' poem on top of the page and this one...at the end of the same....your poems have an undercurrent of sensuality .smooth and never explicitly stated.... but, 'it' is there.
