Divine Colours

Sitting in the temple, eyes on the God

The silence, meditative, no other thought

Cool breeze at the dawn of the winter morning

Just touches me like a feather on its way while soaring

The breeze calms me and soothes my mood

However, something keeps distracting me from the woods

I just tilt my head and look around

There are those high trees from the moist ground

Totally covered by bunch and bunch of flowers

Violet, yellow, red and lilac; Oh god...with so many other colours

My mind is now off the meditative state

And is now wandering amidst the colours with a swift skate

This is a standstill state and rejects even a slight move

Mind is locked in the paradise just found

Prayers are over and all the legs have started to move

My mind is still locked in the paradise and does not approve

However, I have to forcefully pull my soul

Attach it to the body and start to walk as a whole

Still half hearted to reach my car

The breeze brought me something from far

The lilac and yellow flowers, like a distant hill and the sun at dawn

Landing on my shoulders and alas, my mood is on

Not daring to touch the soft cold petals, Carry them on my shoulder

Going through what just happened, the fact struck me on the face

Startled,

Tears start trickling down,

Oh God,

Is this the way you bless us?
