Somber remembrance of a departed soul
Remembering one of my uncles on the somber anniversary of his ascension to the heaven.
When I look up to the heaven,
close my eyes I see a bright star
I plug my ears & hear familiar words*
as if he is next to me, not very far
(*Hello Ashok-ji)
We have great conversations
in silence, without talking much
As the wind from the Pacific wafts,
it feels like his gentle touch
