Rooting

 
Heaven-circling desires
defying map-backed wisdom
rise above precincts of humanity
attempt to attain moon-blown divinity.

Enter the Sun
darting out million tongues of fire
velvet dreams juxtaposed
against regality of truth
-giving new dimensions
redefining ambition
rewriting dreams
riding on whispering winds
falling on rain-soaked dampness

Re-emergence
of desires closer to earth
-a seed becomes a tree
mobility-challenged
but nurturing all that falls
in its radius
a shade that nurtures
-fire-purified
with an expanded sense of self
merging with the Divine.

  1. Only with a great Bharat upbringing, could such amazing thing be written. Very nice. You might want to try recording your voice reading and uploading to soundcloud to add to this post (see mine for an example). I read yours out-loud to myself, and it rang wonderful.

  2. I love the way you broke this up into 3 sections. I see the desire circling heaven as a dark cloud. I see the Sun section as shining a discerning light. The 3rd section, which I like best, is the grounding and communing. This is a beautiful piece of writing ❤
