Deep Within Poem by Praveen Kumar In Shobha Priya

She sprang from Kailas
In the womb of Himalayas;
She flowed on hills and
Dropped to steep valleys
On her long sojourns to
Drop down to my soul.

That advent shocked me,
Like tsunami, took with her
To golden landscape
Of love's million colours
In dreamy bright glows
That wrapped us to one.

A mirage or a miracle,
I could not describe it;
And true more than true,
I found her deep within;
She was all smile
Like the morning star,
She was fresh and bright
Like a dawn's sunshine.

She carved her throne
Deep down in my heart,
Built sanctum sanctorum
In the soul of my soul
And installed herself there
As Goddess, sacred deity.

In flow of bright light
That outshines midday sun,
She guides me from within
To step on right path;
She is consciousness
That keeps me in peace.

Oft I long to see her
In front of my eyes;
She refuses my pleas,
Invites to insight,
Where day night she keeps
To tend me to true light
Of joy and contentment
And fulfilment.

She transcends time and space,
She transcends life distance;
Wherever fate takes, builds fence,
She crosses over in confidence.
