Patterns

Raja Ghoshal 1974 (New Delhi)



Everything has a pattern
Or most of it, no doubt
The way things happen
And, ultimately pan out

Even the musical notes
Or the way a guitar is to be strum
So choose your patterns
And the songs you want to hum

Closely look around
Do a simple trick
Close your eyes, open the heart
And take your pick!
