Rishikesh

Each night you rest by the waters of the Eternal.
Each day you rise with the sun of the Imperishable.
Each moment you bathe in the aura of divine love.
Every kindness, every breath, and every step…
the sum of your revelations in the night…
from courtship until the tearful farewell,
as dreams wait and wither on a far shore
and memories drain into whirlpools of time.
Such is your station, your devotion, and your life.
