When I left school (way back in '99) a teacher of mine wrote me a poem... She made it on a piece of chart paper and on one side stuck pieces of colourful paper that formed an image that was an abstract fusion of a red indian brave and a bird...
On the other side she wrote...
On the other side she wrote...
"Remember - special one,
In the heart
of the warrior
Is a bird fish
Swimming upwards
Searching light
gleaming scales search
Sun and star
So bright, so far - when
Suddenly,
in the blue sky's endless flow
a bird - of dark gold,
and shining wings
and eyes with golden rings -
In their depths, the bird fish
Softly sings its song
unafraid to be.
Ashwatha,
Wherever you are, whatever you dream, remember the beautiful bird within you, grand and wise. My love and best wishes will always be with you.
- Sumitra Akka"
