A Spiritual Affair

And then when

Indra smiled,

The lazy smile to the point

of being sensuous

It was that time of the year again

When the amorous rain

Will carry with it

A tender train

The passionate power

The dancing beads of

Blossom shower!

Every dainty drop

Like Indra’s fingers,

running softly

on the green

feeling, playing the melody unseen

Oh! It is a love tune!

When the nodes begin to bloom

And Indra laughs

                                                                      waits

For the Milky way

To appear on the Earth

And the rain god’s romance

With each coffee blossom

unfolds

A spiritual rebirth!
