ISLE OF THE LAND


In a land of endless skies and rolling seas,

At the isle of the stillness of the land,

Amidst the meadows' ease, he kept his beacon,

A guide for wandering souls towards their goals.


In that tranquil haven, where time slowly flowers,

He brought up his daughter, their hearts side by side.

A kid whose spirit grew as rain fell softly upon the waves,

At the isle of the stillness of the land.


As waves whispered secrets to the shore they strode,

In the depths of the sea, a tale unfurled.

The guardian angel, kind-hearted, with wings of grace,

Drawn to the keeper, the one who lights up her nights.


Her eyes meet his, to a connection never broke,

In the solitude of surreal calmness and noble isolation,

A breeze of love that blossoms in all seasons,

At the isle of the stillness of the land.


But the daughter disapproved, her heart unsure,

The stories of vanished sailors who loved the sea’s charms,

The emptiness of a world without her Dad,

The angel's love was a threat she couldn't endure.


Ruled by an angry angel hurt in love, the sea grew restless, 

As he sensed the brewing storm, he spoke to his kid,

A tale, long past, of a love forbidden, of blind union,

At the isle of the stillness of the land.


He spoke of her mother, a creature of the sea,

Whose heart was captured by a man so free,

Their love was a flame that burned bright and wild,

A union of sea and land, defying the rules of both.


From that union, a child of secrets was  born,

He kept her hidden, under the light and in the night,

Now it is time she goes back to her Mother,

From the isle of the stillness of the land.


The lighthouse stood firm, a beacon of hope,

There he stands looking at the calm blue sea,

Memories never become fade, of tender footsteps,

Drenched in the rain of unending solitude.

GOPAL SWAMI PETTA

A 60 KM Drive from Sulthan bathery, Wayanad through the mighty Mysore forests, comprising of Muthanga Wildlife Sanctuary and then through the remote villages of Gundalpett, will take you to the abode of Lord Gopal Swami, located at a height of about 1200 feet from the sea level. En-route you can see the beautiful locations of many movies, the first one being Lal Jos' "Chandranudikkunna Dikkil" This is a place where cold breeze always soothe your tired muscles. The spectacular view from the hilltop, fresh, cool air and the roaming elephants are all a feast to your soul. Relax, refresh and rejuvenate here. The lovely nature here have all the ingredients for that. When leaving the hill in the even ing your mind will not accompany you. It will stay back there at the footsteps of the Lord, leaving only your body to the noisy world beneath.
WISH YOU A HAPPY NEW YEAR Under a thick cover of brown soil, a solitary Red Lucky Seed closed its eyes. Then it opened those eyes and closed them again. It was only darkness. Be it closed or opened; it was dark. Its nostrils, tired of inhaling the ancient scent of dehydrated soil, were numb. For the last time, in the severe pain of compression on its dry skin, it heard the call of conscience again. A faint cry, from its core, of life that was about to end, the weak call from within for a holy birth.  The thirsty seed cried out loudly in that pain of abandonment. There was no one to here.  That cry was not strong enough to reach the ears of the great clouds in the vast sky that stood like a silver umbrella over the dark earthen veil that covered the humble seed. Waiting for the inevitable end, and intensely dreaming of a brown-eyed raindrop, the Red Lucky Seed closed its eyes again. Not a drop of rain came in search of the lonely and worthless seed, so insignificant as one of t...
