I AM HERE TOO

The temple trees swayed rhythmically
In the late evening twilight glow
As I made my way towards it
The swans wading in the lake adjacent
And the surrounding serenity
Filled me with an irresistible peace.
Already thus drenched in divine light
I climbed up the steps leading to the temple
But for a moment paused
And looked back
As if I heard God call my name in the soft breeze
To tell me,
"I am here too"
