Nataraja

by Rajender Krishan

Life’s cosmic play continues
with eternity in motion
Nataraja creates and pervades
there should be no confusion

Solving the riddle, the preceptor
shook me up from the trance
Revealing that none can separate
the dancer from the dance

The idea of balance is put forward also through the poem's form: 2 quatrains with parallel rhyming scheme ABCB.
The first and last word of the poem are interconnected: life is a dance, and we are just dancers, good or bad dancers...
