JOURNEY UNDERWAY
(In Honour of Vaishnav Das)
The journey is now underway
That’s what real people say
Gone is departing soul, Vaishnav
Who shared with us so much love
In quiet somber demeanour
His words were of genuine candour
Often fueled by a sharp wit
Oh, yes, I’ve heard him quip
At random nonsense things
He relieved us with guitar strings
And keeping a smile at the forefront
Never a need to get too blunt
Husband to one we adore
Father of a fabulous four
A leader in bhakti and business
On a bucket list of moral fitness
One would anticipate his consent
And melt with that sweet SA accent
And you know he’s left many gifts
The kind that a rishi submits
A patience in dealings
Through sensitive feelings
He’s done so little wrong
For this he’ll stand out for long
