I Feel Come Home Poem by Dr. Madan Gandhi

Behind all what we see
there is an unseen vast-
a world our physical eyes can’t see...

That's the quintessence of all spiritual journey
to look beyond all what appears
and see the Cause behind the cause

As I turn dancing to the tune of flute and drum
I am transported to a new realm
breathe the perfect calm and serenity in the air

I can hear the rustle of tennure
a blur of white, with black shoes caressing
and slippers sliding across the floor

How magnificent, phenomenal the dance is
dervishes dancing in every step
getting better and better
absolutely transparent

The hollow reed, the melody and light
the intoxication of the black night
with every turn drip off tears of joy down the face
the atmosphere filled with the aura of Love’s grace

There irradiates pure joy and romance
as I see with inward eye the film of dance
each turning makes me feel the beauty and rapture
and the experience of ecstasy

I feel like reunited with my long lost beloved
struck mute, in utter peace, I feel come home
in the Divine Presence.
