I SEARCHED YOU

I Searched You 

I searched you in Mosque, Church,
Temple, Gurdwara, and at so many places 
where you are being chanted 
with various names of God or 
any powerful spirit of nature 

I found solace and peace 
for the time being 
but when I returned to my hermitage 
disappointment starred me 

I sat on meditation 
chanted your various names
 but still disappointment followed me 

So, I came out beneath the open sky 
in the field, then 
I saw you ploughing fields 
sowing seeds of life 
without caring sun and rain 
for creation of new life and
for survival of the existing life 

I saw you in blooming flowers 
without caring about sun, rain, thunder and storms 
spreading thy fragrance, 
pleasing all passers by 
I saw you being ripened with fruits and corns 
for nourishment of all lives 

I saw you making roads 
hugging sun, rain and bitter cold 
in your bosom, for all the travelers of the world 
making them reach 
to the goal of their lives 

I saw you, building mansions 
irrespective of seasons for comfort of lives 
self residing under the roof of a thousand ventilations 
and rejoicing the natural phenomenon of life 

I saw you in whore lanes 
selling her body for survival of her life 
and survival of lives of dependents 
and for her kids 

I saw you in whore lanes 
entertaining her customers 
to rejoice  the fun of life 

I saw you flying in open sky 
chirping the song of freedom 
choosing the grains in the field 
for amusement of natural life. 

I saw you in shambles 
sacrificing the life of cattle 
being slaughtered brutally 
for making delicious dishes 
to rejoice  the fun of life 

I saw you in the fragrance 
of thy sweat coming out 
due to days' toil 

I saw you in changing seasons of life 

I saw you giving rain and light 

I saw you in sky, water, in land 

I saw you 
evolving for creation of new life 
for a new fuller life and its decay.
