TEMPLE IN THE SEA
Siewdass Sadhu
a dreamer and a dream fullfilled
temple in the sea
obeying the rule
we leave shoes at the doorstep -
we gawk at murtis
the sound of jhandis
waving in cool sea breeze and
we walking away

Just lovely, in the writing. And what an intriguing subject.
I love that sound, the snapping sound of flags in the wind! Very nice imagery.
It sounds peaceful ... and happy! Good for yoU!
I was totally drawn in & mesmerized by the haiku/artwork, then completely blown away by the verse which -- THANKYOU VERY MUCH -- concluded with the same, sooo...I bow deeply before thee. More please, GC. ASAP
That sounds like a lovely outing!

Is Murtis the elephant headed god? It seems to ring a bell. It is always good to visit somewhere unique.
all the statues are called murtis☺ the elephant head one is Ganesh
