When you said, “I love you too”..

A lively lightness overtook my soul,
My heart throbbing with joy,
Like never before!
Ready was it,
To break open the cage
Of the limiting mortality!

Bounce in my feet,
Like a feather cruised I,
From hills to plateaus,
Across pastures and jungles!
Like rainbow crossing one horizon to the other,
In just one span of the step!

Spring all around,
Blossomed happiness in all corners!
There was music in air,
Soft, scintillating and ingenuous,
All strangely in harmony –
The screeching of brakes,
The horns of traffic,
The shout of the street urchin,
Selling sour mangoes,
And the symphony of the Fakir,
Passing by the pavement,
Busy with his organ!

All seemed sharing my limitless exhilaration!
The joy of gnat's dance
Dolphins surfing the wave
Dogs chasing their tails in frenzy
Chimps giving each other erotic body rub
Cats stretching themselves before the fire
Lambs frolic on the spring pastures,
Monkeys leap from high cliffs into waterpools!

It was like the ivory colored seagull,
Having got the view of the open sky,
After spending a life,
Inside a dark dungeon!

All was free,
All was light!
Seemed it like a world,
Before the Pandora’s box!

With freedom all around,
Where nothing existed,
But only love, happiness,
Understanding and camaraderie!
When there was no difference,
Between the self and the God!
Where the world was the abode of Angels,
And we both were its center!
Dew drops of the life giving nectar,
Drizzling all around,
Wetting our being to oneness!

The time had stopped,
So was the beat of heart of the universe!
The Wind held its breath,
The fall stilled down its passion!
The ocean calmed its waves and tides.
For the entire creation was awestruck,
Spellbound by thy grace,
Intoxicated by the soft caress of thy voice –
Proclaiming to all Elements,
Confessing to me, “I love you too!”
O God…
