Invisible Threshold By Satis Shroff

INVISIBLE THRESHOLD (Satis Shroff)



Did I boast of fleeting things,

Of illusions in these earthly confines?

How vain we are,

When we don't realize,

That our very existence

Is an earthly maya.



Intangible shadows we grasp with our hands,

When we know we have to leave

For our eternal home.

When we cross the invisible threshold,

We don't need visas and passports,

Green and blue cards.

As we wander through the twilight

Sans bodies,

To be one with the cosmos.
