My Soul Is Thirsty Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

My Soul Is Thirsty

Rating: 5.0


This morning brings a new song
from beyond the world of the skies
where the angels and saints live.
This new song reminds me to pray.

The praying white swans I see
The chattering prayers of the sparrows I hear.

With gentle care
I kneel and thank with folded hands
drubbing the dogmas,
lost in my own cogitations
about God and the world beyond.

I walk through the mysterious path of flowers.
I chuckle quietly in stealth
when the angels count my footprints.

Who can build a bridge from earth to heaven?

Deep in my innermost recesses,
my soul is thirsty
to attain the divine.

Who will quench my thirst?

It is like a bubble bursting because so keen is it to unite back with the ocean. So is the feeling of every soul. So well said Dr Antony. The problem however is: in this madly rushing world, it is not easy to get in touch within, with our soul. Solitude helps, you're right.

There is an insatiable thirst in everyone to get united with that supreme power, though some may negate the existence of that divine force! But still they may also experience that longing from time to time. The soul which is a part of that Power will definitely seek to get united with its source, though the body may not recognize it! Beautiful poem laying bare the hidden longing of your heart!
