THOU ART FREEDOM
Thou art in the Helios' gaze gamboling from one tattered leaf to another!
Thou art amidst the pismires frolicking along the pullulating stalk!
Thou art in the cooing of pigeons!
Thou art in the germination of serene, unruffled flowers!
Thou art in the overgrowth of breathing roots!
Thou art in how the nightingale croons!
Thou art in the frolicsome flight of thrush!
Thou art in the prattle of apes!
Thou art in the wind blowing across the mesh of leaves!
Thou art in the splattering of rain on the soil!
Thou art in the murmurs of periwinkle!
Thou art in the plummeting of driblets from the slimy leaflet!
Thou art in the swish-swish of virescent frond!
Thou art in the pirouette of batrachians!
Thou art in the redolence of petrichor!
Thou art in the tot mucking up his torn shirt, whilst playing!
Thou art in the giggles of menfolk, gathering around the chaupals, playing cards!
Thou art in the watery hiccups of a berated child!
Thou art in the gripe of wives!
Thou art in the roars of dissent in the astern families!
Thou art in the secular chants against the superstitious walls!
Thou art in the unrestricted colloquism of youth amongst his strict elders!
Thou art in the lively gliding of fishes!
Thou art in the honking of traffic infiltrating into the tranquil milieu!
Thou art in the flopping of tousled hair on the forehead!
Thou art in the paper planes cavorting with the gentle zephyr!
Thou art in the drooling of inflated balloons in the azure skies!
Thou art in the trailing of the flirtatious pallus of a damsel!
Thou art in the wails, after being drifted apart from the abusive bond!
Thou art in the playful twirl of the drenched wet chamois sarees, hung along the clothesline!
Thou art in the benevolent hands stirring the ladle, to dish up at Gurudwara!
Thou art in the flakes of perspiration slithering down the farmer's temples!
Thou art in the indefatigable labour earning money!
Thou art in the grin of a destitute of Dharavi slums, whilst donated lilliputian sum!
Thou art in the stitched holes of serape, nibbled by famished mice!
Thou art in the hot oil splatters, whilst frying fritters, in Khan Chacha FoodCart!
Thou art in the tireless dive of bairn into Ganges!
Thou art in the elopement from child marriage in Bihar!
Thou art in the absquatulation from the hustle-bustle of Delhi!
Thou art in the trek to Shimla!
Thou art in the reverberation of one's name against the gigantic cliff!
Thou art in modelling snowman along Ladakh hills!
Thou art birthed in me, as a part of myself ; thou FREEDOM!!
