Oh for a nice cup of
vanilla red roobois tea
A fragrant brew that always
puts one in the zone

Grinning like a Cheshire fairy
I reach for the aromatic tea bag
plugging in the glass kettle
I notice something quite magical
a rainbow in the teapot!

Ahhh yes...
As I settle into my favorite spot
and sip the enchanted infusion
unicorns, elves, pixies and rainbows
frolic merrily through my head

I twirl my rainbow umbrella
on my morning stroll
the mockingbird who usually greets me
***** his wings excitedly
and launches into a melange of
euphonious melodies

Enrapt I also start to croon
welcoming the cooler, balmy days
after a long, hot drought

Gathering a bouquet of
moon white blossoms
strewn like delicate cups of nectar
Under a fragrant tree
I savor my dose of aromatherapy

Family of iridescent starlings
bathe gregariously in the
overflowing gullies
blessed by the recent fresh rains

Jumbo splash of rainbow red
makes my heart leap
like a dolphin
as Mr. Cardinal cruises
through the skies

We are all so very grateful
Divine Mother! Great Goddess!
For Your Precious pearls,
raindrops, heavy dew

That makes all of life go...
Pitter-Patter

Pranams to the seaside
to the ocean shores
and dancing sands

Pranams to the sapphire
throated One
seated on the silver horizon
Jai to His glittering steeds
galloping on white surf
towards us

Heavenly Pranams
Hail to the
Splendor in our breath
Radiance in our being
Jewel in the lotus

Where are You my beloved
Where are You my Lord?

Tropical monsoon rains
pelt my face with a
thousand kisses
I feel You in every drop

Where are you hiding Beloved
Where are You?

Warm winds laden with
fragrance of Your presence
embrace me
You live in every silken caress

Where are You?

Ardor of sun's rays
leaves me breathless
You fan the embers
of my blushing heart
I am shining! I am shining!

Where are You my very breath?

Choir of birds chant Your name
Hari Nam
trees in the forest bend low
cast garlands and fruit
at Your lotus feet
I wander through Paradise with You

Where are you Hari?
Where are You?

"Where is God?
God is in you, with you, in front of you, around you"
- Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba

With garlands of roses I bow down
at your feet, Mother Earth

I bow down to King skies
and the one seated on
a Golden throne

I bow down to shimmering
stallion waves galloping
across shores of eternity

I bow down to the tiny ant
scurrying across my path

I bow down to creatures
big and small

I bow down
I bow down
I bow down
to you

The garden looks s-o-o-o in love
azaleas in pink frilly bonnets
dance arm in arm
inviting purple iris with
golden leopard skin
to come join the fest
soon the whole garden is
whirling in ecstasy
Grandfather Ott in all his
amethyst Glory
bows and takes the
white gloved hand of our
beautiful gardenia bride
waltzing through
blushing sunrise disney roses,
past capricious cape may
and little boy blue plumbago
who can resist a whirl with
the bewitching red
damsel hibiscus Rosa

I want to remember You
On my bed of stars
final kiss goodbye
to pink peach sunrises
purple peacock sunsets

I want to remember You
Beloved Sai
Wind blown hair on
luminous banks
of the Chitravati
Marvelous miracles
that only God could create

I want to remember
Your glorious eyes
embracing mine
and the healing touch
of Your holy hand

I want to remember You... Sai

I want to remember You... Sai
