Is it about reaching out or connecting within

Is it the calm of an endless ocean
or the solitude of that cloud in the sky

Is it the sound of a river
or the lightning in the sky

Is it the droplet on a petal
or the wings of a butterfly

Is it the yellowness of the first ray through that tree
or the pinkness of the twilight sky

Is it the wetness of the snow that clads the mountain
or the thirst of the desert sand

Is it the lushness of a green jungle
or the crumble of an autumn leaf

Is it the first cry of a new life
or the relief on the wrinkled face about to say goodbye

Is it the begining of a new era
or the end of an age

Is it about reaching out
or connecting within.

Simply Beautiful.

The innocence and the emotions that you've poured in are worth appraising.

I think its about reaching out, after you discovered yourself within. Cause once your inner perceptiton changes, beauty colours everything around you.

Nice.

well thanks once again for liking the poem. u r actually the first reader who has left so many comments without any of my torturing.

ha haa! well you didn't torture me, but my dad surely did..! he was so highly impressed with you that he kept poking me to just have a look at your blog.. and after i had a look, i never needed the further pushing. I appriciate the flow of your thoughts, the simplicity and the nothingness that surrounds your mental state. It is this 'nothingness' that nurtures an artist. and eventually fron 'emptyness' this void around his mind becomes his very own little world.

as for my journal? well its a set of creation of sketches more than a collection i must say :)

Armm.. a formal introduction seems a bit awkward after those little words that we shared.. yet..
I'd be Shriyaa, Sanjeevji's daughter.. he kept talking about you.. indulging the curiosity within me, to discover this potential being that lives in some corner of this holy cosoms just like a few of us here..

i guess bohot jyada ho gaya.. lol..
Keep Writing..
there would always be someone at the other end reading it..

Amen.

nothingness void emptyness..i guess all of this is too heavy for me understand let alone digest..smile.
