Fountain of Bliss
Flowing thro’
the universe
Day & night
Many quanta of nectars
spilling up
Into infinite sky.
In bounties
sun & moon
drink
And remain
ever radiant
As un-ending halo-
With eternal completeness
of universe
in life
& Thine halo.
(Why) : Sitting absorbed
- and centered in self?
Look around
Broadening bosom
Accept all tiny sorrows
as trifling one
Fill with love
The voidness
in life.

Adapted from Rabindranath Tagore
Your poem is realy out of the box.You bring a strange and wonderful creative way of seeing things through your poems
Dear friend, i read your poem 'Bliss' and i got tied up. I tried to release myself from the flickering darkness of living. But oops. I am not able to free myself. You have said it is a replica of Rabindranth Tagores poem. But when there is no full moon even the stars are bright and serene. A truth is always sweeter and wonderful even if is retold. We would not have our vedas and scriptures if there had been no people; who treasured and valued it. Thanks for your valuable thoughts. P.Bose 18/10/10 India
(Why) : Sitting absorbed - and centered in self? Was just thinking that being self-centered and going out of the box can be equally 'useful' (don't like the word sounds so utilitarian, can't think of another at the moment) . But you're right (and hopefully happy) going out to share both ones insights and outsights good way to overcome oneself.
Nice...bliss or love already a poetry? Don't worry, be happy swallowing...

Greetings Ms.Nivedita I like this poem. It puts me where I want to be, blissfully in heaven. The last part brought me down, so I read the first 2 parts again, but not the 3rd. Good Job
