How songs are solace !

How songs are solace !
I wonder how !
I wonder why do I write about them.
I wonder if I am worth writing about them at all.
I wonder how I live without them at all.
I wonder how life would have been without them.
I wonder loneliness sans music.
I wonder Einstein without violin.
I wonder Bob without poems.
I wonder Elvis's voice without the lyricist.
I wonder
Whom do I owe thanks for all the moments
In music, with music, of music ?
I wonder, I wonder, I wonder.

I live as the sign of your journey *

Yes, I live as the sign of your journey.
Your journey is the unfolding of my true nature.
The milestones of your journey are my days.
The beautiful flowers in the passing garden,
My poetries.
You make me speak.
And I know me.
And you know you.
You stand for strength and determination.
You stand for respect and beauty.
And I unfold to my true nature.
As you travel in me.
With me.

* From the sufi mystic,
Rabi'a al-Adawiyya (717-801 A.D.)
