Lover's Abode
Lover's Abode
Take me to a place
where the horizon bends
where there are silvery clouds
and golden dew drops
where there are no borders and no LOC
where there is only you and me
I am not called a Christian
and you are not called a Hindu.
Take me to a place
high on the hill
flooded with trees and flowers
butterfly and caterpillars dance
on top of the hill
is a lonely shiuli tree
let us lay in the shade of it
the shiuli flowers dropping
on our face, lips and bodies
the fingers of a
Parsi and a Muslim entwined.
Take me to a place
where all the rivers meet
and flow in one rhythm
a cadence transformed
into waterfalls
flowing on the rocks below
the rocks carved into
Vishnu, Juesus, Allah
All Gods at one place.
