MY SISTER

MY SISTER NANDHITA

I HAVE FOUND A SISTER

AND HER NAME IS NANDHITA

SHE IS LIKE  STILL WATER,

LIKE TRANSPARENT GLASS,

LIKE A CLEAN SLATE

SIMPLE AND CLEAR AND INNOCENT.

THAT VERY INNOCENCE MAKES

HER UNIQUE IN THE WORLD

BECAUSE SHE IS FILLED WITH

NO SUPERFICIAL BELIEFS

THRUST UPON BY SOCIETY,

SHE IS A QUIET, SILENT REBEL

SHE IS NAIVE TOO,

DOES NOT KNOW HERSELF

IN CONSCIOUS TERMS,

HENCE LOOKS ORDINARY,

BUT THERE IS A DEEP WELL

OF WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE

THAT SURFACES FROM TIME TO TIME

LOOKING AT HER YOU FEEL

ONLY ONE THING

IN COMPLETE HONESTY,

YOU FEEL THIS PERSON

NEEDS TO GROW ,

TO MATCH CONSCOIUSLY THE

OCEANIC SUBCONSCIOUS WITHIN

AN INTELLECTUAL SHE IS NOT,

BUT NEEDS AND RESPONDS

TO INTELLECTUALITY LIKE NO OTHER-

IT IS THE DEEP OCEAN WITHIN

THAT BURSTS AND WANTS TO

BURST  ALL THE TIME.

SHE IS THUS LIKE A WILD FLOWER

AND HAS FOUND A SOUL MATE

IN HER HUSBAND WHO IS

EQUALLY INDEPENDENT AND DEEP.

BUT SHE DOES NOT KNOW FULLY

AND THAT IS THE BEAUTIFUL

JOURNEY AHEAD

A JOURNEY FULL OF DEEP

CONFIRMATIONS AND DISCOVERIES,

THE SOUL LIGHTING UP INSIDE

THAT IS HER DESTINY,

THAT IS HER MISSION THAT IS

SILENT AND MOVES HER IN ALL

THAT SHE DOES, ENCOURAGED

BY HER BETTER HALFTO THE LIMIT

GOD BLESS MY SISTER,

GIVE HER THE ANCHOR

SHE NEEDS IN DEEP

PHILOSOPHICAL WISDOM

MAY HER LIFE BE

A GREAT ENDLESS SONG!
