We Are Sleeping You Wake Up Poem by Kumarmani Mahakul

We Are Sleeping You Wake Up

Rating: 5.0


We are sleeping here as this is night,
There it is day, you wake up to work.
Here night is singing to dream sweetly,
There day is dancing to direct you.

Here shadow is deep in the dark of time,
There day is deep in light to brighten up,
We are in middle of transformation of love,
You are in love of day in middle of turn.

But this is wonderful; we are in one world,
Same world, same sun and same time,
Feel deeply and observe closely this life,
There is perception that does magic in mind.

We need rest, so we are sleeping to awaken,
You work hard to get success as this is day,
Your turn will come there at night to sleep,
At that time we shall wake up as day will be.

Day and night differ at one end of the globe and at the other! While some sleep and take rest in one country, it being night, others may be busy working in another country it being day! This time difference is planned by God in consecutive repetition! A lovely write on night and day!

you capture the rhythm of work by day, and sleep by night, extremely well. How refreshing it is to fall asleep after a day's hard work. A fine poem.

Waking up with wisdom is great. Greatest love comes from God through light into Earth. We feel this. This is really great when love is transformed into light of love of wisdom. Love glows and grows with us. This is a great write and you are a nice poet.
