Quest for God

Amidst the meditation of mountains, 

the humility of flowers 

wiser than all alphabets--

clouds that die constantly 

for the sake of God's glory--

we are hating, 

hunting, 

hurting. 

Suddenly 

we feel ashamed 

of our clashes 

and complaints 

in the face of the tacit

glory 

in 

nature.
