Life's calling

On top of the snow capped mountain
Near the end of a distant run
At the turn of a musical note
In a job well done
In a Guru's grace
In love's expanse
In the cool summer morning breeze
In the thicket amongst the trees
In the answer to a dogged question
In an ancient country's soul
In the mystery of the universe
In a story well told
In the silence of the mind
In the laughter of a child
I have found life roll

How can I not tell
Though I know it cannot be told
How can I not give
When I have been given so
When I hear life calling
How can I not go

I am

I am the billion stars
I am the little purple flower lost amongst the sea of grass
I am what I love
I am that which I hate
I am the wretched
I am the grace

I am the approaching night
I am the rising tide
I am what I hide
I am what I fear

I was here before
I am here now

I am the world looking upon itself again

I'll be there

You will find me in your smile

And when you run the extra mile

You'll find me when you feel so free

Also when you dance with glee

I'll be there when you laugh in delight

And be with you in your fight

I'll be there when you bear the pain

Also when you walk away from gain

I'll touch you as the early rain

And as the winter sun through the window pane

I'll be watching as your thoughts unfold

And listen as you think of stories never told

I'll be watching life with you amazed

And watch with you the cattles graze

I'll be helping you do things right

And meet you at the morning light

I'll be there when you give

and so when you forgive

And if you are wondering o just how

You will find me here with you right now

-tarun

All so that I could see

Many will believe me not
That I met you as a man who but thought
How can I raise my dormant lot?

You came as an inspiring dad
And as a mother who to serve is glad

You came to me as a teacher old
As words of a master bold

To tell me just how I thought

As foolish and as wise
You also came with broken thought

You came to me with mystic eyes
I wonder if it’s true or just lies

Beautiful you came with silver shine
Ne’er thought the world could glow so fine

You walked all way a loyal mate
Sometimes as friend or a brother naive

You came to me as my child one night
I stood dazed, in wonder and delight

You came as a disappointing lot
And let me down oh so oft

Your questions won’t just ever stop
I’m learning now what I once was taught

You let me down and in pain
Only to let me down again

Shouting laughing running free
I come in and you jump at me

I can’t disagree at all
As a song when you do call

I know now why
I can tell

All so that I could see
That I am you and you are me
