spirit of the rainforest

 The spirit of the rainforest,

breath the same air as her

if your luck shines.

Search for her 

among the chirps;

Among the roars;

Among the caws and bleeting,

through the air that is fleeting

Search for her

in the heaven around you.

She is everywhere,

in each splash of water,

in each caw of the crow,

in the rustling of leaves,

and in the breeze that runs like theives.

even in the dew drops on lotus;

in the necter of rose.

If she ever wants you to

witness her glory,

take her in;

bask in her glow.

watch the wind blow

through her glorious curls and coils.

Watch the breeze sniff

the balmy scent from the flowers

bloomed in her hair.

Her gorgeous skin

as if gold droplets on soil.

Nurturing , leading us to our ends

and the reminder of where we started.

Her footsteps on the ground

leaving behind the evidence of her presence

almost like a present.

Her brown earthly eyes 

would ground you from all the miseries.

So warm, so compassionate

that could make you cry like an infant.

Kindness like that of a child

while still knowing it all.

As fierce as a storm,

as calm as a pond,

roaring like a waterfall,

so melodious that puts flute to shame.

rough like barks ;

cool as the shadows in the scorching sun.

As deep as roots,

As tall as mountains.

Her dress is flowing like a river

with all the blues and the greens.

She teaches them to sing,

gives them beauty

from an ant to a peacock.

So untamed, so unruly

yet so disciplined

flowing uncompromisingly like she does.

Try to tame her,

be reduced to ashes.

Her presence is like a lightning,

so striking so elegant;

so dangerous.

That is her beauty.

She is in all of us.

Search for her;

get lost in the forest of your soul.

Mesmerized by melodious symphonies,

let your emotions rain.

When you can fly free,

why refrain?
