Carpet Of Light Poem by Ranjit Ravindran

Carpet Of Light

Rating: 4.0


A carpet of light blinking at random,
Spreads silently in freedom;
The darkness around deepened the glow,
Unfettered it continued to flow,
Over the hedges and the fences.

The carpet seamlessly expanded,
With drops of light assembling;
A bead from east, a bead from west,
All trying to bond with the best!

That fluorescent organic glitter,
Made my heart flutter,
Promising a life better!

Very well written piece. I am going to probably not get the interpretation correct. I see this piece about destiny. I see it as the hope of things to come. Excellent work.

it can be light of knowledge... it can be light of a revelation... it can be the light as it originally exists in all of us and which we aren't aware of...

Light and darkness, two extremes that fascinate. Light often brings security but darkness can bring peace. I can see that your work does reflect this fascination.
