At the departure lounge
Waiting my dear at the departure lounge
Keeping the luggages safe and sound
Gazing at the sky towards horizon bound
Listening with hope, still no arriving sound!
Delay of the flight reasons beyond me
Spending the time with brushes around me
Singing to tunes obliging requests flooding me
Yet knowing the plane is due to board me
Flying to places just to keep my eyes awake
Remebering you at every new place
Listening to the birds pleading to give them a break!
To continue with singing to keep nation awake!
Trying to keep to the minimum with few things hanging
Leaving behind attachment which is a nuisance clinging
Feeling of love for dear ones creeping up crying,
Knowing its self love delaying the journey ascending
What ever I do in the departure lounge
Ready to leave at the arrival sound
Keeping the body active along
Not to bother loved ones with a disabled clown
My Kalyana mithra is Dhamma any day
Giving solace and relief to the mind each day
Supressing the love and attachment to life today,
May you have peace dear, where ever today!
