Pipal ki chhaon me


pipal ki chhaon me
chhota sa hi sahi
ghar ho apna
aur aashaayen naache
baansuri bajaate bajaate

sheltered by a spreading pipal tree
let my home
even if small
be filled with little hopes
which dance to my tuneful flute

Thoughts:

It is not accidental. You FOUND the right background to match the texture of the leaf.
Your words have gently bestowed such dignity on the tears that if i were the leaf i would have felt proud for having lived through greener times.

The different shades are so eloquent... the veins so simply claim attention.

i'm sure no pipal patta ever sang a swan song but i hear this one singing: it wasnt easy but it was worthy.

Thank you for the beauty.
