Removed from my mothership, yet still held, I feel connected. This moment with self, but not. A moment of longing. Love, lost, reflect. I resist, with friends brightening the light of new openings. Budding encounters full of stories. I seek the small steps through colourful flowers and paths. I am both here and there. My amritvela. How is that possible? Each breath, a new step, I take So Dar with me. It’s in my pocket, with a bundle of cards inked with my favourite Japanese pen. It’s in my hand. I didn’t think I could even read. But then I reach the last card, I thirst for more. I could keep walking through the forest. Even as the sun fades in the distance, I can see, the path is lit. I want to keep walking. #Sikh #Sikhi #Poetry #Poem #SikhPodcast
