On Music

God's words are poetry.

He speaks with rhythm,

dynamics and rhyme.

In a form of a song,

He sings his truth.

He is highly contagious.

Reason why His devotees,

being always near him,

if not musicians are poetic.

"In the beginning 
was the Word;

And the Word 
was with God".

And the Word was 
holy and sound;

It was a song, 
it was music.

If you can capture the powerful subtle sound, 

you might as well capture the restless wind.

I miss the band, I miss the playing, the music,the offered food, the chanting, the associations, the rock out, the sweet mellow kirtans. Distance, time, work, resources, health, weather are but few of the countless reasons of hindrance; But wherever I am, a sweet soul recorded those memories for me, And it can always make me joyful, and can make me dance.

He plays to win, I play to play;

He plays with the risk of losing

I play with the risk of winning;

If the end justifies the means,

Simply by playing, 

I’ll achieve my end;

Whereas, only by winning

He’ll have his aim.

Happiness is the goal;

and as the word implies,

therefore, to play is to enjoy.

Playing primarily is not

a matter of winning, or losing,

but a matter of pleasure.

So throw those unnecessary

sheets of balls away

and come on, let’s play!
