Happy Soul's Day, Linda Lum. Monday's Inspiration 64

"...Each birthday is a petal of a flower. The flower, petal by petal, blossoms and then it is ready to be placed at the inner shrine in the aspiring heart..." -Sri Chinmoy

It’s tea-time in this magnificent ambience,

Where connoisseurs of this subtle art meet.

The blue china tea pot pours a perfect blend,

Into cups laid out, on a table for two.

Amidst a background of outstanding cream, the red and

Pink tulips, caresses our breaths with their redolence.

A translucent window, gleams its verdant hue and

Shimmering rays, as Tchaikovsky thrills our Spirit with his charm.

Amid this symphony and magical setting, a red-breast

Enters, singing ‘I love you’ to our Hearts, as the scones appear,

Topped with clotted cream; laced with tenderness and Love.

Friendship -- it is like this harmonious blend of beauty and pageantry,

Where the tea and décor merge; the song-birds lend their voices,

Playing hauntingly to the Spirit, in a Garden of Love Divine.

Manatita, The Lantern Carrier. 3^rd February, 2020

God has many children and Art is one of His favourite darlings. Linda Lum has mastered her culinary skills – a true art-form - sharing them selflessly to numerous hubbers, in the spirit of soulfulness and oneness.

A fine writer, she excels with her quality of light humour, exquisite skills and colourful presentations, to please the eye and satisfy the needs of the stomach.

Brilliant at research, she has both an ancient and modern command of cuisine; of how to make a delectable dish and her talent on Hub Pages is magical.

Linda Lum is a mother, a wife … a diligent and assiduous gardener and a parent full of loving concern for family and friends. She writes informative, educational, inspiring and well-loved articles on Hub Pages.

Like me, Linda is also a dreamer of peace and an ardent devotee, of the message of Love, as expressed in the Sermon on the Mount and other aspects of the Christian doctrine.

"Each birthday is a new awakening. Each birthday is a new hope. Each birthday is a new promise. Each birthday is a new fulfillment..." -Sri Chinmoy

"Each birthday is a tune, a melody of the universal music. Each individual is also a melody of the universal music. The seeker grows and glows in his music, which he can hear with his soulful ears... the soul needs to climb like music, soulful music. The soul, when it climbs, knows no boundaries, no religious barriers, no political boundaries. It is all freedom, freedom within and freedom without..." -Sri Chinmoy
