Metamorphosis of Familiar Faces .

by Gayathri Devi Dutt
(Bangalore, India)

"An Eulogy to Dr Rajeev Taranath".
( First one in the series of 12 )




Ascended on earth like a Beacon of light
That Lighthouse was a Kaleidoscopic flight
Transcended on all in delight.

Ninety two autumns you Rotated
Yet you were not Shattered
All along the Instruments Vibrated.

The Repertoire garnered diverse gems in abundance
That the treasure personalised to the one in benevolence
All those showered in grace endured permanence.

Your own structures silenced the voice of Sarod
Metamorphically transmuted the resonating Sarod
The breath merged into air that has strings of music around.
