Flight

Flight  (OSI Prompt : Empty)


It was little difficult
Gravity pulled
....But I persisted.

I go up… some distance and fall
I persist…

Slowly….. it begins to happen
I am above the ground for long distance
….before I fall.

And
One day I fly
In the sky,
Gravity doesn’t matter
Up and down, floating
With current of air…..
......Expanding…..shrinking….
Up…down….
In that emptiness
As long as I wish.


When I land
I am calm, 
Full.
Mind sings songs of heart.

Yes, gravity doesn't matter.. fly we must.. but let it be our choice to come back on the Earth without gravity palying a role.. Harshad Ji.. lovely take on the prompt.. I flew..

Excellent description of meditation.

When out of meditation, heart rules and not mind. You have put it so well in words - 'mind sings songs of heart'

Meditation.

You took me on a flight.

Harshad Mehta said...

Hi Madhu,

After long time.

I am sure you meditate regularly.

Do drop in often.

Gravity is not strong enough to hold down those who dare to soar.

This reminds me of learning to meditate--which process I am still involved in! It's a blessed state, when the mind sings songs of heart.
