Liquid Wonders Poem by Saroj Padhi

Stars in your eyes drink deep in the river of my soul
awakening strange ripples from bottom to roll,
inviting past images to fall before dissipating
to the bank where I sit as a cool spectator;
the shadow of my body lost into the smiley waters
as I try to watch the miracle of merger and catch it
on my camera that with some cool thought shivers
perhaps at the discovery of life's big secret spelt
as to how hearts are supposed to melt -
by each ripplet nestling inside
the folds of mother ripples
awoken to liquid wonders on river's dimples
that promise a big sea for my union with eternity
now at this moment of my truth and integrity
when I'm with myself in one simple entity
in search of my real identity.
