Odelekuku (O-day-lay-coo-coo) begins.....

Odelekuku (O-day-lay-coo-coo) perched at one of her favourite spots, from where she loved to observe all the comings and goings, of people criss-crossing the earth’s crust, in search of daily cares.

Odelekuku’s favourite spot was here, there, and everywhere;

wherever Odelekuku roosted her frame, transformed into that spot!

"Look for that place where your heart feels safe, and at home;

find that space that brings peace to your heart, and you’re home!"

Her words….always filled with conviction! Those, and her sagely eyes that saw all, but whose mouth spoke little,

…..unless and until….!

A wind from nowhere had broken through the clouds of her morning reverie….

It was an amazing moment of excitement,

as exhilaration and elation merged in rapprochement,

buoyed by the unshackling of once-shackled chains,

nurtured by the entombment of crucified banes!

A glorious vision had come like a jolt of thunderbolt propulsion,

thrust and stoked by a glorious vision that had surged into her a.m. contemplations.

It had touched the ground zero of her meditations,

casting its beacons of revelation,

upon the roaming of her meditation,

evoking a refrain from her lips, in description of the excitement that had visited her morn:

“The rays of this glorious light,

drenched my path with their breath;

I looked up, and saw how their girth,

had ensnared the once-upon-a-time dark shadows,

that had cast lots upon life’s joy!

Their blaze seared through the veil on my face,

disrobing its covering of blindness;

their gleams revealed the belly of new paths,

and beamed even brighter on once-concealed paths!

I began to see clearly…..now i see clearly,

the things that should have been, but never were,

because they couldn’t be;

I began to see clearly…..now i see clearly,

the things that should be, but never could be,

because they wouldn’t be;

I began to see clearly…..now i see clearly,

the things that should begin to be,

because they could be, and should be;

and because they would be, and will be!

I followed its rays,

and the bearing of its way;

my steps they quickened, even transposed

into unfettered backflips of delight;

joy had crept back into my existence,

joy had been rescued from the dungeons of slander,

that had been built by the assumptions of the unschooled,

and the dispositions of the loathsome few,

who bask in strutting like uncircumcised philistines,

disturbing the pool of joy of the children of promise,

of the High and Exalted One!

Ah, blessed joy, always on time!

Riding on the crest of the vision

that invaded my thoughts this dawn,

I welcomed it.... i welcome it!

For, now i see clearly.... i can see clearly,

the things that should begin to be,

because they could be, and should be;

and because they would be, and will be!”
