And I followed the light
on my barefoot
As long as I can
but could never get a hold.
Then I followed it again
On my trained horse
A little longer and too far
but could never get a hold.
Again, I followed it
On the waves of the sea
As I was nearing, it took a dip
but could never get a hold.
Is it worth chasing the light?
If yes, then for how long?
I am growing old and light fading
Can someone get a hold of it?
Wonderful and very wise poem. I think if the light and the darkness it can be in one person too is real it is only under space responsibilities. The space is real holder of it we can only make something and need to learn to do what we can
A powerful poem packed in philosophical wrapper. I liked the tone and the words used in your poem.
We all know that there is the divine Light in our inner vision...to really find and vision that true Light inwardly is very hard to chase...I too ask like you only....great work...5*****
Chasing the unyielding is life, carry on the hunt with a positive attitude until you understand the futility
I am amused about the word light used here, the two lights, inner and outer and we chase both time and again.
