An Agnostic’s Faith

.

Getting down, bare-foot head-covered

To sit cross-legged for ritual-worship

Lighting the butter-dipped wick of cotton

And incense swung before sculpted idols

A young Hindu girl floats in the ambience

Of an imagination aflame with an aura

Hallowed by ancient vedic verses heard

Over un-ageing vistas of human glory

Being agnostic doesn’t have a quarrel

With her choosing to respect the wishes

Of her parents for her faith forbids her

Not to wreck their faith but to respect it

Her choice of non-belief has not choked

Her emotional reserves nor cabined her

Mind nut and bolt but with open mind

Brood over the unpredictable universe

Of feeling and sensation and think deep

And thus to arrive at where she began

To grapple with intuitions of communion

.
