It's a dewdrop

Revisiting these emotions which were penned on April 17, 2011 fills my eyes with fresh tears now and I am not ashamed to accept this.




Among the vast trivia of many
That encircles the vistas around
There’s a trivial little dewdrop
Sitting on the couch of a petal
Hidden in the bigness of branches
Overlooking the Shining Sun

The heat may scorch
The bees may sit on
The wind may blow
The petal may wither
But it’s the pleasure to see
That keeps the dewdrop on

Every dewdrop has a story
And this too has one to narrate
For it is not a dewdrop as you think
But the teardrop splattered
From my eyes in gratitude & love

Yes, it's a tiny little dewdrop
Sitting on the petal in disguise
Overlooking the Sun of its choice


Who can know which is a dewdrop and which is a teardrop among the whole lot of droplets sprinkled on a flower yet appreciate both with equal respect and love...... except a Guru?

I would celebrate Guru Poornima, the 15th of July, by channeling more Light.
