HERE on Diu , the Gujerati island of Sea &

Serenity

Known for its warm attractive sandy Beaches &

Beauty

A wintry morning Moon , blows a rising Sun , a

kiss

A pilgrim stumbles on a
peaceful oasis with ecstatic bliss

Soon the flaming warmth spreads all around

The brightening gold colours the cool ground

Nearby a shrine`s drums echo in the

morning stillness

Transforming the atmosperic chill in

vibrating Wellness

Such seldom oasis this vast country usually hides

With its boundless Ocean & its concealing tides

Where Time seemingly frozen in its contemplation

bides

Alone a Sharp eagle , high up in the air , rides

This island’s bygone eras & Portugese fortresses

Reveal humankind’s perpertual psychlogical

complexes

Security want , for instance , always ,

the Nature enmeshes

The two-legged beings, despairs & hopes ,

“ Tomorrow may bring comforting

dresses. “

The fact is , insecurity and the unknown , depicts

Nature`s Reality

And any craving protection is mere fantasy & is

transitory

Shakespeare quite elucidated this with clarity

When he wrote " Security is mankind`s

chief enemy . "

The pale Moon smiling in yonder blue sky

Watching over this open secret , over & beyond

this secluded isle

Casting a net of illusory dream

 Perhaps the fishermen , today , may catch a
bream

This evening will once more bring out the night-

clad jewels

Sparkling against the pitch

blackness camouflaging the devils

That lurk in every nook & corner of the terrain

Evil they maybe NOT , though

possessing many an ignorant brain

The Compassionate heart flutters ceaselessly

In Harmony`s rhythm beating timelessly

Come ! thither to this Other shore …

Where rejuventing waves dance in abundance

galore !

Seeming sleepy eyes peeping with intense

Alertness

Seeing ,all at once , with Choiceless Awareness

Knowing only the known can be known

For losing sleep is NOT its nature ;

thus abiding in the Unknown ---

all appears Beknown !!!
