What do you think this poem is about?

~ Bliss ~

Fountain of Bliss
Flowing thro’
the universe
Day & night
Many quanta of nectars
spilling up
Into infinite sky.


In bounties
sun & moon
drink
And remain
ever radiant
As un-ending halo-
With eternal completeness
of universe
in life
& Thine halo.


(Why) : Sitting absorbed
- and centered in self?
Look around
Broadening bosom
Accept all tiny sorrows
as trifling one
Fill with love
The voidness
in life.
-
Adapted from Rabindranath Tagore

    Once again I'm commenting such a poem worth reading and commenting

    Maestro RNT is UN-parallel and ever new....

    Unforgettable...once RNT commented if all my writing readers become oblivious my song will stay aglowing this poem is translation from song [lyric] of his writing

    Keep it up...looking more such transcreation from you...please hear us

    A very imaginative poem that feels good to read. I do not understand this poem because it is so original but it is enjoyable to read. It takes the reader to an imaginative place that is a pleasure to inhabit.

    Greetings Ms.Nivedita
    I like this poem. It puts me where I want to be, blissfully in heaven. The last part brought me down, so I read the first 2 parts again, but not the 3rd.
    Good Job

    Dear friend,
    i read your poem 'Bliss' and i got tied up. I tried to release myself from the flickering darkness of living. But oops. I am not able to free myself. You have said it is a replica of Rabindranth Tagores poem. But when there is no full moon even the stars are bright and serene. A truth is always sweeter and wonderful even if is retold. We would not have our vedas and scriptures if there had been no people; who treasured and valued it.
    Thanks for your valuable thoughts.
