‘Stop’, she told life
‘you can’t go
not yet not now
you have seen the tears
you have known the turmoil
but I can’t let you go
until
you have seen the gurgling bubbles of laughter
rushing forth in great emergency
molecules of happiness
breathing for the very life
breaking boundaries of the mind
the deep guttural roars of irrepressible joy
trapped beneath tears of impatience
bellowing noises breathless
cracklings of the diaphragm
settling into the softness of a chuckle
disappearing into the silence of a smile
making its way to the eyes
now not soaked in sadness
twinkling in delight
the forehead furrowed
with laugh lines of fate
and faith,yes, faith
you have to see this
after the interval
there’s a twist!’
PS: Her of a thousand smiles

A little girl’s story has been in news from Kerala. She was being ridiculed for her energy and courage to face challenges. It was so moving to see how much will she really has, nothing can stop her! Thanks Albert. You are very encouraging.

I think our great poet Walt Whitman must have learned from you in another life. He would have wished to have written phrases like that, and these:
“gurgling bubbles of laughter
rushing forth in great emergency”
And “deep guttural roars of irrepressible joy”

The true state of life is happiness, so I like to think. I have always wanted to read more Walt Whitman though I am more partial to Robert Frost and Emily Dickinson 🙂
Sometime soon I hope to be reading more ….
