Vision Poem by Praveen Kumar in Celestial Glow

Give me wings,
Give me strength
And let me free
To fly to heaven,
To spread all over,
Inhale its flavour
And blend with it.

Push me ahead,
Invest right sight
Of obstacles ahead
And enthuse to fight
And rush onward
To reach my goal,
And never to halt.

Hold me back
From fatal faults
Of selfish jumps
Of hurt and grief
To innocent lives,
What blackens soul
And flinches merit.

Draw me down,
When I fly high
In sound and fury
In flashing colours
In ego’s realms,
Flat on earth
Amid humble dust.

Stand me erect
Amid wild odds,
Invest in patience
To bear all pains
Till odds vanish,
Adsorb wide swings
As it befall.

Freeze me hard
To commitments
Like air and breath,
Never to flinch
And never to break
From what is right,
For what I swore.

Feed me aplenty
With deep insights
To right and wrong
Of complex world,
Not to go wrong
In judging world
And harming good.

Warn me oft
Against my haste
In running life
To destined end,
Lest I falter
To irretrievable web
Of endless struggle.

Guide me gently
To nuances of world,
Mysteries of nature,
No sciences revealed,
And invest wisdom
To employ them
For the good of all.

Raise me above
From common faults
Accepted by most
By faith or reason,
Those deflect vision,
And block progress
To cherished shore.
