WIND IN ME AND OUT!

WIND IN ME AND OUT!

 

The wind in me, gives me life;

But the wind out, takes me up!

My soul flies up leaving the wind behind;

And traverses into an unknown land!

 

The mind breaks off from earthly worries;

Unmindful of the compulsions of life,

It goes afar gliding swiftly and steadily,

To see if it has an eternal break!

 

So stressful and strenuous this, back-bending life is;

While the rich thinks of a star-holiday in a far off land;

A lottery that’s won, the lazy-born dreams of! Nevertheless, 

Everyone likes to sweep along the assigned task of life.

 

The struggle for survival, suppresses the joy of living;

The very thought, preoccupies the mind and makes it stale.

But today, no worries hinder my free flowing mind;

And so, it takes off and reaches the high-fly zone!

 

Oh! The joy of living is an immaculate gift;

But the bitterness of life struggle is a wretched curse!

No matter, the mystery of departing to an unknown zone,

Makes me realize the inferiority of earthly life!

 

As the mind-eye, perched on top, gets a bird eye view;

The human vision is transferred into a super vision!

It’s right on top and looks down upon everything,

And there’s none above me except the supernatural!

 

Oh! I wish I were like this to let go my thoughts to reign supreme;

There’s nothing down upon the world that excites me anymore;

Nor will I allow the inferior worldly thoughts to trigger my emotions; 

Oh!  I am up on a floating spree heading towards the world of eternity!

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Breath that carries air (wind) gives us life.  As soon as it goes out, the soul flies off and leaves the earthly world! Now, everything down on earth looks inferior and the world of eternity looks too superior and uncomparable!
