In The Light Of Enlightened Word

Would like to let you know,
In this unknowable, inscrutable, unfathomable voyage,
I am, never alone….
You are, always with me,
I breathe you….

Would like to let you know,
Every moment a beautiful shape, a form is acquired,
Every moment another depth, another height, another dimension is attained…
That is the yearning, that is the learning and that is the earning,
in the light of Enlightened Word.

Would like to let you know,
Beyond the highest of the peaks
Of the tallest of the mountains of nothingness, emptiness and void,
In the terrain of no words there are no sounds, no echoes,
Yet there is, if at all – Only You and You are, around and about.

Would like to let you know,
The dot, line and the colors create shapes and forms -
O, what a blissful state of heavenly innocence,
The flower is never conscious of its fragrance…!

Would like to let you know,
In this inconsequential dialogue,
Just a conversation, having no purpose…
Then, why, O, Why, The Time, too, gets intertwined with this Ghazal,
And why each moment gets woven with its rhyme….?

Would like to let you know…
