Divine joy



“If you enjoy the Fruit, pluck not the Flower.”.......Word of Wisdom.

DIVINE JOY
==========
Living only today in the mysteries of coming radiant moment
Without saving anything for tomorrow, without wall of torment

For I have totally given myself to the fluttering gift of daily life
Wearing gown of Gratitude feeding the nook and corner of life

Without breaking your myth and truth but bond of slavery bleeks
Freeing the mind with wit and humor like wind touching my cheeks

My poems are my tools, color, and brush to paint a real picture of life
What you see in your family, relations, binding role of an anchoring wife

I stitch the pearls on your cloth to sew our family fabrics woven suits
And beautiful precious handkerchief and socks for our durable boots

The Idea of Karma continually teaches us the need to open our Heart.
Madness is not a terrible thing to do but to enjoy the unknown chart

Blooming flowers, Ripened fruits, song of the bird and hum of bee
I want to share divine joy of everything existing, we hear or see
