All That Happens
by Suresh Natarajan
All that happens — the good, the bad, the unpleasant
Happens on time as destined
All that happens — the good, the bad, the unpleasant
Vanishes on time as destined
All that happens is perfect
It's clear when we reflect
All that happens is impermanent
Like the clouds seen in the firmament
The intensity at the time of the event
Makes us forget it's all evanescent
Yet when we look back with clear eyes
It's all His passing show in disguise
Each destruction only for the next renewal
And each renewal, next destruction's fuel
Can't wish this movement away
Can't rush the scenes of this play
He unfolds as Time that consumes all
All that appears has one day to fall
Not a wrong note in this symphony
Nothing to judge, it's all in harmony
The only way out is to fully surrender
To accept everything with love tender
The ground on which Time does its dance
Watches it all without even a glance
Surrender takes us out of the scene
From a character to the unmoving screen
The character goes on doing what it's meant
Nothing to be proud, nothing to repent
What remains is unconditional love
Ever peaceful in the eternal now.
