Love’s Light

moonbeams dance ’round
your face, mingle with the light
of nebulae swirling within
your eyes to shine on this heart,
a reality this writer struggles
to put into words

Invading through her vast expanse,

To create,

A tiny corner to call my own.

Imprisoning her abundance,

To enjoy,

Gardens of my own.

Imploring on her kindness,

To lavish,

Amassing luxuries of my own.

She speaks in various tones and decibels,

Care to comprehend any ?

Silence, her only solace,

Darkness, shields her pain,

That piercing truthful daylight,

Is that which brings out many flaws,

One of her many sons and daughters, I,

Care to be by her side?

P.S :- Through this poem, I pay my respects to Mother Nature.

Acknowledgements :- These lines from the poem prompt were my inspiration for today’s prompt. “All is not well, all is not right..”. Thank you Reena Ma’am for running the challenge at Reena’s Exploration Challenge #136. For rules please refer here. Thank you all for stopping by and reading.

I am the eternal one

The first cause

I have no beginning and no end

All creation is mine

Count the grains of sand

It will not equal

The stars in the universe

There is a purpose to my design

But it is not for you to know

For you are arrogant

In your knowledge

Short sighted

In your perception

My knowledge

Is not your knowledge

You delve in natural law

My laws are eternal

Laws of the spirit

Grace perfects nature

Listen to me

I created you in my image

To rise from potentiality

To actuality

From flesh to spirit

Feed your soul

And be born anew

For all men who were ignorant of God were foolish by nature;
and they were unable from the good things that are seen to know him who exists,
nor did they recognize…

Reena, I have taken your poem apart and did a statement and response with it.

Would I care to be right? If life was not finite

Life is infinite. So is death. It’s an eternally revolving door.

If I’d the luxury of eternity to let it be naturally proved that I’ve always been right…

When you look in a mirror, which side is right?

beliefs and perspectives windowless walls between us block insights –

Our beliefs, perspectives – and insights – are no less valid when not paralleled/cloned with another’s. Each is on their own path.

so much so, that you revel in pleasures of darkness bottling and imprisoning light

Imbalance will right itself. Darkness can only bottle and imprison life for so long. All it takes is a tiny crack, and oomphalos rises.

Their…

I dressed my blues prettily

and sent out for fresh air

but it looked pensive in pink

standing all alone

where once blossoms bloomed

an empty bench, where loneliness sat alone,

invited it for company

but it trudged back home

lodging deep down inside me

content to curl quietly

dripping drop by drop,

painting my pained soul

I am learning to live with it

too tired to look for metaphors

I delve deep, cladding myself
in the darkest hue

revelling in the pleasures of darkness

bottling and imprisoning light

for it hurts my eyes and blinds me

blackness envelopes me comfortingly.

"you revel in pleasures of darknessbottling and imprisoning light"

Reena’s exploration challenge #136

कब तलक करूँ इंतज़ार तेरा
दो दिन आरज़ू वाले बीत गए हैं

कब तक रहेगा खिज़ा का आलम
मौसम बहारों वाले बीत गए हैं

अभी तो अंधियारी रात बाकी है
कुछ पल बेक़रारी वाले बीत गए हैं

एक दिन तुम्हें याद आएगी हमारी
ख़्याल तसल्ली वाले बीत गए हैं

क्या आओगे तुम सुनकर अमित
की तुम्हारे चाहने वाले बीत गए हैं
