The Flickering Flame Poem by C. P. Sharma

The Flickering Flame



I am the flickering flame
Of an earthen lamp
As a gust of wind blows
I might decamp

I dropped down as
A divine spark
As funeral fire, I go
As home harks

Ashes shall be bed
Eternal space my home
Bondage free there
I shall roam

No passions and possessions
No transgression or aggregation

The Flickering Flame
