Beauty of rhythm

The silent 'raga' is beauty, so sing, sing, sing...
Music itself has rhythm.  Create harmony
Your heart-beat has a harmony, not discord.

Be cautious of your palpitation, about the rhythm.
Variety may mar its beauty and your life.

Subtle beauty of seeing the couldroon boiling
Unrest is fed before smashing slavery.
Break, break to make revolution for a casteless
creedless human congrugation.

The wailing reed pacifies.  Heartbeat throbs.
Nature has a rhythm for everything.
Universe has an enchanting song of rhythm.


Flutes, trumpets, horns played by Pan.
Falling rain has a rhythm, thunder too.
Induce to maintain rhythm of your limbs.

Take a skull and beat a rhythm.  Past rhythm!
Fusion of the past and present make rhythm.
Eternity is framed in rhythm.  That is music
Chirping of birds too is wonderful.

Love music.  Let the systems work.

Sister, Why do we use skins or nerves of animals to make music and enjoy? Formerly skulls of big animals too were used. How cruel! Thank you
