Hanger

Other day Saw bare Coat hanger Just after Coat was taken off At first sight hanger seemed cast in a maze Looked empty, incomplete, lonely. But, after few moments into gaze hanger appeared radiant and shiny. The polished frame, artistic arch disposition clutterfree, neat and tidy manicured stand with welcome stance appeared ready to embrace new coat. Empty hanger whipped up my thoughts churned out a creamy metaphor Thoughts raced Isn't our Soul akin to a hanger and Body akin to Coat placed on it Body-Coat eclipsing Hanger-Soul The Coats keep changing Hanger remaining constant Beautiful looking Body-Coats of anger, greed, hatred and lust obscuring divine beauty of Hanger-Soul Take off the Coats, relieve the Hanger Body-Coat is burden, dust off illusion Embrace Hanger-Soul, it's real freedom _________________________________________ © Hitendra Mehta
