In Me Poem by John Navin

Once, I was looking for fireflies in the night,
Now I find all the stars are shining in me.
Once, I was getting lost on the way,
Now, I find all roads joining in me.

Once, long seasons passed in waiting,
Now, all meetings are happening in me.
Once, even the rivers were running dry,
Now, all the oceans are dancing in me.

Once, the leaves of autumn were floating,
Now, a million springs are blooming in me.
Once, each moment seemed full of clamour,
Now, even time has fallen silent in me.

Once, even sparks were missing in life,
Now, a thousand lamps are alight in me.
Once, hands were joined in prayer,
Now, infinite blessings reside in me.

Once, the soil of the heart was parched,
Now, bountiful showers are pouring in me.
Once, the earth was just like a prison,
Now, the boundless sky lives in me.
