Where music thrives

where a step to it is always welcome

where laughter waits in to spring a surprise

friends are always happy to join

poetry being its very essence

Shakespeare, Browning and Kalidasa

are buddies to sleep with and wake up to

a bit of play of voice and some strutting drama

is part of living , breathing stories that cry and laugh

the warmth of love in the morning sun , the hugs and kisses

that come with the evening sky paling into the darkness of the night

a trip to nature, a heart of compassion, love and care for one another grows

into that life dear universe, take my soul, into that company shall I be held dear.
