Articulate

Thunder
can no more frighten me ,
but it does fill me with awe
at the capability
of Nature
to articulate itself .

If only I could articulate my self in such a way... to make the world shake with a word... or thunderbolt

How about lightening? I am still afraid of that, but I dearly love a really violent storm when I am safe under the porch.

Right mossy .
Storm can only be appreciated
in the safety and security of walls
and a solid roof .

It would be foolhardy to venture into the storm otherwise .

But there is an image which has
endured in me -
that of a hero standing right on the banks of a river in spate ,
perhaps on a stormy night ,
singing in an unperturbed ecstatic
voice ,of the splendor of Ganges ,
flow of Yamuna and bonds that cannot be forgotten .

Dear brother... and the capability you have to articulate your self is equally awe inspiring .. these few words are written so very beautifully ..loved it ...

My words are very simple, dipti .
Even a primary school child can write like me.
Thank you for your good words , dipti.
