EARLY MORNING BLESSINGS

Ashok SILWAL

Magical and indefinable moment
When…. Where…
The dark blue of the night
Is fading in pale blue- grey
And the shining light of the day
Has not yet ascended to heaven.

The white dome of the Stupa
Is waiting… majestic and protective,
Under the watchful and benevolent eyes
Of Buddha.

Everything is almost ready:
The pigeons respectfully wait
For the right moment,
The small prayer flags are ready to flutter
Cheerfully and colorfully,
And ..IT ..already rises
Like a fire of life in yellow, red , orange…

MAGICAL AND INDEFINABLE MIOMENT
In which who sees and watches
Remains astonished and amazed
By such Beauty…..
Grasping his own littleness
In the immensity of the Universe.

Then, he heads towards
Holy Pashupatinath
And thanks with a big heart
For this special start to his day…,
When… where….
The life wakes up
With the people who go to pray,
With vendors organizing the stalls,
With monkeys observing…..

And in his eyes, heart and soul,
He thanks Shiva and the Gods,
For this meaningful dawn,
For this always incredible break of the day,
For this enchanting sunrise…..
