Yellow thread
tied to a tree
Marigold
scattered
Marigold
scattered
in a thaali
---
Inspired from:
Rose petals
quivering
in a water bowl
Black dhoop
smoking in
an alcove
Earthen lamps
floating by
the river bank
Evening air
fragrant with
burning incense
In offerings
left by strangers
I trace your presence
---
Inspired from:
"Wherever I bowed my head, I found the steps to his door"
ਜਿਥੇ ਵੀ ਸਰ ਝੁਕਾ ਲੀਆ ਦਹਲੀਜ਼ ਜਾਪੀ ਓਸਦੀ
जहाँ भी सर झुका लिया दहलीज़ पाई उसीकी
Amrita Pritam
