Sunflower!

I met her in Gulmohar, Kashmir...
She was as white as snow
and as loving as she could be...
When I mounted her to get to Children's park
I felt guilty!

But, they said, that was the only way to reach there...
I prayed to mother earth to make me as light as possible
As if hearing my prayers, Mother Earth made me feel light.
And, as we moved forward with her reins in my hand,
I kept it a little loose, so as to not cause her discomfort!
I had asked her name and the horseman had said, "Sunflower!"

As she was hearing and stumbled on rough ways
I heard a lash of stick on her back...
Making me cry out instantly, "Don't hit her!"
And, as I am writing now
why and what kind of tears are streaming down...
It was as if that one whip was not on her
But, had hit my heart hard!
I asked her forgiveness and touched her as lovingly as I can!

I understood her as much as she did...
Connected as Tshaeylu of Avataar!
She read my fear,
and was as smooth as clouds even on rough grounds
Every time I touched her, I felt I made connection!
It was like we have rode together before!
I knew she wanted to fly, and take me along...

As we returned, the dark clouds rising up high on Alps,
She wanted to be the one to lead on!
Instead of her rein,
I touched her neck to guide her in direction
But, she an expert wanted to hug me closer...
She made me feel Young, Queen and a long lost friend hard to be found!

I wish I could stay there, only for her!
And, when I got down...I touched her face lovingly
I recognized her, as much as she did!
In response, she barred her teeth!
I wish I had something to feed her...
She was taken away from me,
A moment when I heard my heart crying out loud!
As I recollect her memories now,
I just wish she is healthy and safe somehow!
Wish that she wouldn't be hit in anyway
when she is being rode by others!

Hope Mother Earth has a blessing on her...
I am miles and miles away from you, my sweetheart...
But, through words and dream,
I HOPE to reach you today somehow!
LOVE you and MISS you lot Loving Sunflower...
