Sabarmati

[This is a tribute to the power of non-violence, which blossomed in Sabarmati Ashram under the guidance of Mahatma Gandhi.]

The Charkha
influenced million others

yarns tied the like-minded,
resolute minds weaved
attires of courage.

Prison walls proved incapable
to contain non-violence.

One man
had lovingly sewn
ethos of life
on the banks of Sabarmati,

Shots fired on 30th January, 1948,
could not stop
the tranquil flow
