Sun The Father Poem by Seshendra Sharma

Sun The Father



Sun in the trees sun in the clouds
Sun in the waters,
Sun in The inner sky,
Sun in the outer sky
Sun rises in my finger nails
Trees drink the sun
With their millions of leaves
And
Grow as children of the sun
Sun grows in every fibre of the tree
And Tree bears the sun in its womb
Child with sleeping flames
In folded limbs,
Lies there,
In suspended consciousness,
The womb of the tree
Is the sky of the inner world;
Transmutation of sun
Into Agni,
The sun
Of internal sky -
Hides his light
In the agni;
When he withdraws
All the colors and departs;
Water, trees
Flowers and skies
Lay down their forms
And surrender to darkness
Man, orphaned by the sun
Helpless before darkness
Prays to agni
When the earth turns away,
The sun deposits his light
In the clouds;
The clouds growlike cousins
To trees in the sky;
In the cradle of rain drop
Which is liquid sun
Man kicks his tender hands and feet,
Sun, the father
Smiles each day,
On the eternal horizons of time like a boy
To him
My childish father
I pray
