ADORATION

 

BY A. K. KALYANASUNDARAM

 

Fortunately for me, when I sang

my last word of the day, my heart

was not closed. Only, my eyes drooped

and finally rested with the lids together.

 

Fortunately for me, when I closed

my eyes, my sight was not entirely

lost, but I could see love flowing into

my heart from a Finite object unto an

unknown Infinite Abstract.

 

Fortunately for me, when my love

flowed to the Infinite, I was not a

wasted man. Spendthrift as I was, I

had enough to spend. Love flowed,

and flowed till the sound of that flow

resembled the tune of a song.

 

Fortunately for me, when the

tune blended into a song of love, my

heart looked into the world and

realised that the world was like a

heart, and both were like the unknown

Infinite which they adored.
