When Night Comes To Visit Poem by spiritual seeker

When night comes to visit,
Covering the world like a dark blanket,
Where body and soul gets a resting space,
and the poor a chance to dream a king’s life.
In this silence of the night,
My thoughts pierce a far distant place,
Reflecting life in its deepest meaning.
For this journey of mine,
I have covered a great distance.
Now my strength is weakening and eyes failing,
But my desires are unending…
Have I gathered anything in this life wandering?
or just dust and lust along the way….
and little time to please my Creator?
O lonely traveller,
Have not wisdom come to you?
Know that this present journey is not the end,
Where a longer one awaits you.
Remember! there must come a time,
A great meeting of all travellers,
In the court of God Almighty,
Where every little provisions are precious!
