Bansuri wooden flute
Sugarcane reincarnation,
Bamboo teental bagpipe,
Left hand right hand fingering
Celebration of the now.
Tabla twin hand drums
Left hand dagga palming waves of rhythms,
Right hand hummingbird winged fingers polishing the raga,
Both stirring the sweetness of birth,
Both exploring the confidence of death.
And once birthing the tala’s sixteen beats,
Exquisite life without limit,
The sum threads into its next cycle,
Heart’s breath beginning once again.
