Amaranthine Bonds

Yes, I waited for you probably all my life,
N' when we finally met, fate joined hands aflight

Fly we did, through colorful skies,
and barren deserts, that breathed dry.
And there were days with showers scant,
you saved my soul, ever so gallant.

All ups and downs of life and death,
Seemed part of life, since we met

You know,I have been told by men so wise,
keep your ties open, and not so tight,
People come and go in life,
Never let it bring you strife

I listen to it and I listen to All
Why is it so that my heart falls
Every time I think of you not near
All is foggy only you are clear

I know, I know, this yearning is bad
but I also know the feeling of dread
The feeling that swells so, in my heart
when I find you being so far apart

These amaranthine bonds follow no rules
whether written is small or majuscule
I will live and breathe as I may
my heart and soul will never astray

Rediscovering Life - Moving the stream, Rolling the Stone

"This blog is to share with you all as I rediscover life with all of you being a part of it, since life is in one way a lonely quest but at the same time interconnected with so many people, learning from others and influencing situations around you."

Today sitting and having a morning cup of tea, I suddenly got this intense feeling that I am being a rock on the side of the road. I see everything that happens around me but not really a part of it. Everything that goes on effects me but I do not really find a way to have a say in it. Am I letting the grass grow around me? Is it so bad to let the grass grow around you? Should you always strive to make an impact around you or should be a receiver of what is happening, who passes you and go through the moments of being in sun and shade?

It gave me a jolt. Yeah, suddenly I felt that I want to throw away the cocoon of being comfortable of where I am. I want to be rolling again, through the highs and lows of earth, feeling the water , moist soil and yes, sometimes wanting to land in soft grassland. I have been covered with fallen pine leaves for so long that the comfort of shade is now becoming a dark underground grave. I want to remove it all, remove the blanket of leaves, feel the sun and start rolling.

And yes, today has been a discovery, a yearning to do things the way one wishes and how it progresses, I want to keep you posted... as time goes by I will let you know in approximate terms how things go.. Writing these thoughts and sharing.
