Brother Sister Project

I wrote this poem many years ago. Arun recorded in his voice a couple of months ago and gave it new life. I love his deep voice. And its a rarity to hear serious things in his voice for a change!

Listen to the poem here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvWY9JJCG7U

I am grateful for this thought


I am grateful for this thought
This passing glimpse
This memory of a dream

My eyes are brighter for it
My lips sweeter
And my heart lighter

The utter hopelessness of it
Does not bother me
The impossibility of its transpiring
Does not dampen my spirits
The gaping distance between hearts
Does not take away this cheer from me

I certainly am easy to please
For I am grateful even for this thought
This passing glimpse
This memory of a dream

Puja, Jan 7, 2003.
