INTERDEPENDENT EXTREMES

Rivers

of love and money

Flow parallel to each other.

River of love,

Smooth flowing, transparent,

pure, divine,

no undercurrents,

like the surface,

like the bottom.

Even the pebbles, lively fish,

visible to the naked eyes,

Even the vast expanse up above.

blue sky, moon and stars,

glittering underneath,

wash away all our sins,

make us fresh, vibrant.

River of money

muddied with selfishness,

greed, hypocrisy,

quick flowing sometimes,

zigzag course, other times,

smooth flowing occasionally

undercurrents strong, deceptive,

not visible,

the river being opaque.

Parallel course notwithstanding,

Rivers of love and money

both being powerful

two sides of the

Same coin.

Love is power,

Money is power,

Both interdependent-

for existence.

Hence,

The ring-tones in the

Mobile sets of

The rich, greedy and deceptors,

force us hear,

the music of

God’s unlimited love

on making a call.

-“Oh God the eternal fountain of love,

mercy, care

all Thee showers upon us

in abundance.” 

God, after all,

of late is a

branded ‘figure’.
