I cannot and I dare not
venture out into the dark alone...
I need a hand to guard and guide
A greater wisdom than my own...
I need a shepherd
who knows the traps n pitfalls on the way
One whom I can trust to lead me safely
home by night and day.
One who sees the secret snare
and walks ahead the path to show.
Alone I stray and lose my way.
Alone I know not where to go...
I cannot and I dare not
venture out into the dark alone...
Yes one needs shepherd but shepherd must be heavenly not earthly.....................Good Write.........

Stupidity is not that distant away from daredevilness...when we step out in 'dark', as you said and said well, we always 'need a hand to guard and guide'...good meaningful write, Shweta..10.
This is the earlier stage in the path of attaining wisdom.........all seekers of knowledge go through. But realizing that we need a Guru itself shows that the person has already reached the path...............What happens in the penultimate stage...........if u so wish........you may read my poem JEEVANMUKTHA. Very good poem........in fact more than a poem......wisdom
