Poetry – Ipsita Ganguli

The Music of Togetherness

Ta dhin dhin ta
Ta dhin dhin ta
It builds up
Within you
Within me
Unfurling
Unfolding
Unconstrained
This musical crescendo

Going out
To the deep blue inked sky
The sultry sulking spring eve
This musical beat
Rising upwards
Towards the moon…

And then
Floating back
Into the softness of the grass
And the moistness of the earth
Resting there,
In a final jhankar!

Ta dhin dhin ta
Ta dhin dhin ta…

If only We could all,
Rest in the rhythm of the universe
If we could follow the metre of melody
Within ourselves
If, only if
We knew
How to All tune in
Into the crescendo
Of the music of
Togetherness
