[hometext] => I wrote this poem after reading a Hymn of Rig Veda.It depicts some beautiful aspects of human imagination.
[bodytext] => * * * When she is descending down from Heaven She has acquired the luster of stars and Spread over to all quarters of the world. When she spread over to all quarters, she has Covered all beings of nature by her luster, and Caused loss to the darkness of the earth The goddess of night has accepted The goddess of dawn as her sister and Both chased away the darkness with their luster. When the goddess of night kisses our eyes Just as a bird in the nest we take our rest and May the goddess be a benefactress to all beings! These hamlets fall under the spell of silence These beasts, birds and eagles are dreaming in a silent sleep Even the hills, dales, trees and streams are quiet in silence. O Night! Send those werewolves far away from us! O Night! Send those thieves far away from us! O Night! shall you be auspicious in a special way for us! Here I see the darkness in her black sapphire attire She is concealing many things from the view of my eyes O Dawn! Clear all my debts and send her far away from me. O Night! Maiden of the Heaven! Fare well to Thee! As you are leaving this place, please accept my hymn. As a beautiful garland of lilies to adorn thy lovely breast.. * * * [comments] => 8 [counter] => 265 [topic] => 19 [informant] => venkat [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 45 [ratings] => 9 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => InspirationalPoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
