Twin Flame: Rendezvous with Snow, Land, and Sea

 In this evocative poem, by Leena, the seashell evokes past connection and destined reunion, exclusively for Different Truths.

There’s silence now except for the distant sea,

A slight zephyr is stirring the trees.
The seashell floated in the dancing waves;
It adds amazing bliss to the aroma of blue,
It reminds me of incarnation,
It ebbed and flowed, tickling my moist feet,
Finally, we met.

I hold it to my ear
Anticipating the crash of waves,
Surprisingly, I hear your name
An echo of our previous lives.
For ages, the mystery lay still,
Like a Nacre,
Oblivious to light, invisible to existence;
Twin flames by the Zephyr blown apart,
Petrichor fills my breath throughout...
That beautiful rendezvous,
We are destined to encounter
Where the snow, land, and sea meet.
