Last time I cried..

A few days ago, I cried,

For no reason at all,

Still trying to decipher

the reason behind

tears that welled up

in my eyes.

I cry,

When I am happy,

When I am sad,

Even when I pray.

It’s the connection

that I feel with

all my heart.

Every teardrop is precious

For it contains thousand memories

Of blessings given and received

while staying in gratitude.

I am sure

you might have cried too

For no reason at all,

At some point in your life

As I believe,

somewhere deep in our hearts

 we are all but the same.

A few days ago,

when I cried,

For no reason at all,

Yet again,

He kissed my tears away.

Brick walls

Saharanpur, 2016

 

 

The flowering creepers

Slowly grow wild

while covering the wall

reaching the other end.

Humming birds visit us again

And feed on the nectar.

Roots make a way

through the brick walls

in our sacred hearts

that we call Home.
