The Sign

After a long time, I’ve written a new poem…coz the major part of my day goes by in recovering from the knee surgery…it takes most of my energy & then I’m not able to do a lot…I know, it’s getting a bit boring to hear about it every single time…but the thing is, I’m sharing something deeper & something very simple…these moments are teaching me to appreciate small & simple things…the importance of self-love…to look into your own eyes with love…to love your different sides…to have compassion…to give space…and to take things as they come…the very Creation has helped me quite a lot in not only understanding this but also to sense it with my open heart…to live in the moment is simple & difficult at the same time…it’s very much possible though…lastly, I’m still not able to check your posts regularly at my full capacity…I’m doing it whenever I get the chance…my gratitude to you for the lovely messages / wishes & for your understanding of me being partially active over here 🌟✨❤️💫🙏

I hope you’d enjoy this new poem 💫


Silently I talk to the quiet violet in me
While the violent in me is vibrating the violin strings
The sound of this high-pitched music that I stream
Is the melody of pain & restlessness that I bleed
No visor over my ears to silence the sound intensity
As the wise in me is observing myself calmly with peace
The eyes of this tree are sighing with fall of the leaves
The sign of this piece is shining even when I drop like tears
But I won’t ever hide my raw skin or the formless spirit
No shield I’m wearing, I’m simply standing right here

  1. A wonderful piece of soul-searching Navin … when I was recovering from my strokes, my world changed dramatically … and I began to see my small world as an integral part of the universe … best wishes to you on your recovery my friend …

  2. Wow! I thought I had commented on this intense and extremely well written poem, written in the throws of your recovery. Wow I almost gritted my teeth in pain imagining the strident strings playing out the pain you’ re feeling and living with for so many days Navin…I’m truly sorry you are living this now, but I also admire your wise eyes that observe and learn from this very hard time.
    These lines are amazing:
    The sound of this high-pitched music that I stream
    Is the melody of pain & restlessness that I bleed
    No visor over my ears to silence the sound intensity.
    Powerfully described and youir inner wisdom shines through even your obvious pain. Salaamtek my friend. Please feel better and back to yourself…soon 🙏❤️🌹
