Inner Light! Poem by Naga Vamshidhar Ratakonda

Inner Light!

Rating: 5.0


The Bright and Truth,
Of the Inner Self,
The Inner Light;
That Self Illuminates,
Remains forever Lit;

The Inner Light,
The Original First Light,
Of the GOD thyself;

Turning thy Torch,
On the Dark Pudding,
Budding Earth; GOD said,
'Let there be Light';
And there was Light!

The Inner Light,
That Kindles,
Sun of the Day, Moon &
Stars of the Night;

The Inner Light,
Innovates, Invents &
Feeds the Artificial,
Outer Lights;

Energy of Inner Light
In the Elements,
Squeezed & Blazed,
Power thus Generated;
Setting Electrons,
Photons & Optrons;
The Inner Particles,
In Direction & In Motion;
Turning Night into,
A Virtual Fancy Day!

Very profound and insightful poem. Reminded me of great Malayalam Poet of yesteryear's, Ulloor S. Parameshwara Iyer:
