Notations For A Landscape Architecture ~

A heap of moist petals
of radiant lotuses
erupts in fiery silences
metamorphosing gently into
million million incandescent
rainbow butterflies
ornamenting
labyrinth designs on
the delicate lavender sky ~

The terra firma
is burnt sienna
subtle ochre yellows
of splendorous architectures
of infinite tones ~

Countless suns of
nameless colours
emerged triumphant
from pure emptiness ~

The agony of the last
grain of sand
is another cadence
of infinite joy ~

There is a pervasive smell
of Raga Aananda Bhairavi
in the vast ageless air ~

25th June 1997 ~
