The Spirit Of Fire Poem by Parameswaran Nair Damodaran Nair

The Spirit Of Fire

Rating: 5.0


In the surge of wind memories cast,
Somewhere In the nook of my bosom,
Sometimes glows the piece of ember
Smouldering under ashes of dreams

Dreams climbing up the far heights
Like vines with bunches of grapes
Were trapped in wild fire and burned
Reducing to ashes and hot ember

The spirit of fire lying silent in slumber
Breathes in memories, breathes out pains
To cater a new morn to be born anew
As a dragon to swallow the fire of evils

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Dreams are sometimes reduced to ashes in wild fire of evils. But we keep a piece of it hidden under the ashes of the ruin like the ember in ashes

Thank you very much Rajnishji. We dream from many angles of life and the dreams are destroyed in wild fire of anarchy. Yet a spark lies alive under the ashes and at times the spark of dream catches fire and begins to rise

The value of things that easily acquired fades in no time but dreams really labored is very special. Even fighting with evil seems small. Beautiful insightful poetry sir.
