~ Bliss ~

Rating: 4.3


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

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

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.
