Mukundan blew the Konch
releasing a sound bird;
which flew away afar
The he blew again to see whether
the sound bird he blew out
from the Konch
can come back to its source
But this time also the sound bird
flew out from the Konch only to vanish
somewhere
He wondered whether the long
arms and legs of the sound will ever
come back for their original
hideouts in his soul
Even in half sleep
he blew the sound birds;
And the Konch had an infinite
reserve of them
The Konch is either sound
or strength or speed
each time, he wanted
to trace where the sound birds
have glided
away from the konch
In fact konch on its own was devoid of sound;
It only has a human soul behind it
And even the human soul doesn’t possess
the sound;
The sound birds take birth
only when the human soul
and the Konch join together
