I am Life

Calm oceans nap while facing the sun on the one hand And raging waves readily release their pent up emotions on the other Wild wolves search for a connection with the moon at nighttime While goddesses furrow deep in their gods' chests, ecstatically in love Singers fill the world with bliss Shadows create thrills in our ponds Poets rhyme with lovesick heart beats And birds already know of the turn of events Even if they sing in a language which we can understand not Rivers flow in a single direction, guided by a muse of their own Fairies write of their memoirs on the floor of the river beds And aquatic creatures of all sorts dance to celebrate this ethos Amidst this cyclical rhythm My breath gets steady and peaceful As I dive into the maze of slumber And in there, I gather messages from the other worlds As they get transmitted to me Only to make of them pure and pristine white roses Standing proudly in a glass vase on my altar I am silence, adorned with a flowery crown I am dawn, freshly awakened by dew I am vessel, carrying messages from the nether I am human, graced by the touch of mysticism!

"I am silence, adorned with a flowery crown I am dawn, freshly awakened by dew." Love these lines. Life in its manifold variety is beautifully presented, dear Anoucheka !
