Bare white walls
When etched with the name Divine
Become sacred
A blank canvas,
When splashed with colour
Becomes a picture
Sheets of paper.. gone awry
Become a story when
Adorned with words strung together
A dash of vermillion
On the forehead
Speaks of love and loyalty
And commitment forever
The empty hollow.. of the bamboo
Becomes sweet music
When touched by lips
When your thoughts
Of love and gratitude
Become my gift
It becomes a treasure
To be cherished forever…
