I want to express

everything

in just

one

dot


         imagine




I say

I want

to express

everything

in just

one

word\
     

       imagine

A curious conundrum

We are most ourselves

When we are absent -

When we are busy with a task

That we love, we disappear into

Our totality'



The tree is not only the chattering leaves

But the sturdy trunk sap and roots

Going deep into the earth'



Little mind thinks that he is the Boss

Big mind just looks on and smiles

Someday we will be friends perhaps-

Little mind is scared

Scared of the apparent nothingness of big mind-



Big mind answers -

One day you will realise that you are the one with nothing

Only then can we become friends !
