Fatigue
While walking on a long
Journey
You keep turning back
To see how much have you walked
Rather than
Focussing on way to go
Love
You want to bring the best
Out of the other person
By sacrificing your
Interest, if needed
And
Dont give up easily
Even
When the worst
Comes out
Concentration
The ant crawls over your forehead
The squirrel
Climbs on your back
And you
Remain absorbed
In your painting
….
Indifference
When wind blows your way
And you keep sails closed
Row the boat
Even if it loses its way
……….
Devotion
Till the land,
Sow the seed,
Nurture the garden
And remain non plussed
When
Blue bulls
Eat away all the grains
…….
Persistence
When you get distracted
By transitory
Thoughts
Only to discover
This is not
What ought
to be
Resculpt the stone
Till nothing else remains
Except the powder
And a few marks of the chisel
