Covering the time
with my shawl,
I keep playing
hide-and-seek…
I only hide myself,
I only find myself,
I stealthily peep
out of my shawl,
Get astonished
not to find it there,
I look again:
Only to find Time
descending down
in every eye..,
What difference does
it make, whether
eyes’re open or closed,
Time is omnipresent now
ubiquitously present,
here, there & everywhere!
