Little Indian Man
Dear Gandhiji
Loving Bapu
How I wish
To spin with you
And walk to waters
Where salt is sand
On journey through
Your mystical land
My Mahatma
Soul of light
Teach me to stand
And refuse to fight
Like brother, Jesus
Giving all
In sacrifice
To lead the small
You live eternal
In my heart
Sewing seeds
Of peace and change
And in flower gardens
Where love is grown
Your memory remains

This is beautiful:
“Where salt is sand”
Excellent visual, bringing us right into the Man’s world of peace and hope. Absolutely lovely

Thank you. I tried to tie together what I know and then what I feel about the man.
