For The Lovers In You

...

Winds blow like dancers

Across this restless city.
A bat flits by my window,

On his way to a hot date.

All the stars have long 

Since give up 

Their thankless vigil in the sky.

They lie amidst us,

In our carpeted homes,

Like tired siblings
Finally come home.

I see them laid out

Before me,

Fallen fires and dreams

Across the black carpet

Of this tired city.

A lady who's name is Vidya

Called me this morning

To tell me she loved me.

Does she know

Because she's lived

A life full of song.

Her every word comes

Out sounding like a 

Piece of music?

I am one of the blessed.

And so are all of you.

Stop yourself for a moment,

And breathe in the divine

Completeness in you.

Cease struggling to breathe,

In your rivers of doubt.

Make faith your breath,

And dive down into the

Silent abyss.

Serenity awaits you there.

Flow as this wind flows,

Zephyrs of contented motion.

Love like the child loves,

The ground beneath his

Father's feet. 

Love like the sky,

Loves the ground.

Learn joy from blind musicians,

And poetry from the sun.

Sing aloud and often.

Let all fear be undone.

Put on your dancing shoes lady,

Let me strike up the band.

There's music wherever you are,

Come take my large happy hand.
