Lend Me The Light

Lend me the light,
From your soul;
Lend me the celestial
Spark, to get into the
Heaven's heart.
Bask me under the
Heavenly glow of
Love, to learn the
Lesson of Humanity.
Let me be a prism
To separate that
Light into spectrum
Of colors to tinge,
The faded souls
Help them back to
The brighter life!

    That gives love and peace
    That that provides light and glits
    That offers direction in clarity
    The light that brings tranquil in the innerself

    Bring on the light
    For we shall cherish
    The splendid glisten of its vanity,
    Thats a lovel write as usuall
    Wonderful!

    The light is good when it is beacon.Lending and vending only adds to dilemma.An urge to someone for love and affection is observed though it is important if it were not equivocally apprehensible to the connoted person.

    Lend me the light
    from sun or lamp
    Lend me the bright
    from past to the future
    survive from the dark road
    to the clear future
    we need that bright
    to show us that road
    so lend me the light
    from hearts it can spark
    be all together we will be bright_Unwritten Soul

    Resplendent, spiritual poem...the storyline, alluding to Light reminds me of the many poems that I see every September in honour of the Feast of Diwali /Deepavali, yes? ~FjR~
