A beautiful poem on our eternal thirst to drink the nectar of life and experience the intoxication of being alive in this world.
Images of all forms, Descend with drops of dew
I’m struck with thirst: oh quench it!
Of life’s nectar
Images of all forms,
Descend with drops of dew.
I move and move……
Kicking life’s shadows,
Harnessing magical melodies;
Drinking nectar of every shore
Even knowing the closed door!
Will, may, might, shall…..
A hundred gifts at every step
Heaven’s my destination,
Emptiness was my birth:
The truth of existence,
Did intoxicate my life
Amidst the whirlpools of negativity.
