Inspired by Solitude

In love for light, flies advance to ignited lamps, for a burning death

Radiance of love bestowed upon earth, by sun He earns no returns

Writing for Sanaa's Prompt nights :) ©2016 Vijita Pillai The sky is bright, Sun in its might; Matter of concern -  where’s “the light”? From the spell of dew that made me smile, till tiny shadow & me, drenched in its shine; No curtains of clouds covered for a while, but found no ray - ending the quest, jewels drain brine! The flaming torches and spark of matches, none emitted a soulful light; Wishful of sensing, with closed lashes, A “caged ruby” that shines bright! Darkness of anger, ego and hatred, dusted on the red gem, Brush it with care & love that’s sacred, For a free world having none to condemn .. As pure as the gem, let “it” be clean, Then shall light of humanity & oneness be seen!
