Ash Pradhan
The last three lines are so telling. You do lovely short poems that are so soothing to the senses by making humour and life's sombre moments stand side by side.

Re: After reading these comments,

After reading these comments,
I felt like I missed something. I thought you were writing about a fictitious person. You are truly a bold and secure person Ash. That is one area I definitely have room to grow.

Comment on Stranger

In the sub-text of the poem, I keep hearing -- playing softly in the b/g.-- Leonard Cohen: "I told you when I met you, I was a stranger. . . . And now it's come to other days . . . etc" I like this gem very much. joab

Re: Amazing post!...
That is why Soul, my wise friend, we, men & women, are here to find out (realize), thru experience, that our completenes lies within when we achieve oneness with God, even if it takes several incarnations..that is why no one is "better" than anyone, we are simply in different stages of evolution, and souls like yourself, Sam, Maria, Bhaskar, Neil, who are further evolved, are here to shed some light for & help protect / guide others, blessings, Ash

Re: I love how you speak the truth my friend! sam
Sam, my dear friend, thank you for your understanding..it is the faith in Him that gives me the courage..the truth emerges sooner or later..those who cannot face it up front, better not live in illusion..but those who can, may reap harvests hitherto unimaginable, for He rewards those whom He gives the courage to speak the truth..and an evolved soul like you would know..the whole of blogitville knows & appreciates how you are able to relate to, understand and empathize with everyone's situation, man or woman, young or old, healthy or not..my hats off to you for being who you are..a blessing to the world, ma'am mentor ! - Ash
