Life's Journeys 1. LONG TRIP Ageing he thinks of the ashes and the long trip ahead in spirit feels the earth he would become celebrating life as good as ever 2. KUMBH Feeling the difference between a tin-house and a weatherproof tent: on the Yamuna's banks Kumbh deluge to wash sins 3. REST Between virgin curves he deep breathes evening mist rests in the hollow of the mountain listening to the rhythm of quiet river 4. SHANGRILA Searching his Shangrila in the cocktail of dream desire and prayer a lost soul's ally R.K.SINGH If you have any comments on this poem, R.K.Singh would like to hear from you: profrksingh@yahoo.com
