Inner Radiance


Look at the world
Through the eyes of
My innocence;
You will observe
Nothing but alienation
Of souls-- cherished souls--
From the want to be strong.

Look at the world
Through the eyes of
My care;
You will observe
Only fear
Of trading destiny
For fortune
(Always confusing the two
To be same).

Look at the world
Through the eyes of
My hardwork;
And you will never see much.

Look at the world
Through the eyes of
My solitude;
You will observe
Undying, uncontrolled pace,
To reach the peak
Of ultimate greatness and success
(Not knowing which path
Really leads to them).

Look at the world
For yourself,
Realize the importance
Of sincerity,
Unleash the brilliance
You were born with,
And cherish then
The beauty your soul feels.

Hey aashi...I don't think I am a good poet. I don't know how a good poet is defined. Poems are an expression on thoughts aren't they? When did we start categorising them?? Hmm...maybe I could right a poem on this :P
It felt really good to have got a comment from you. Thanks >:D<

its an honour 2 knw u sweety...hope u soon take a book out on poems.. :)

Anwesh said...

Hmm, good poem.. The thought-processing behind such a work must have been really good..

There is good flow in the poem which is an absolute necessity and it's not much of a drag..

Good choice of words and the framing of sentences is also good..

I guess i will give this an 8/10!

Keep smiling :)

Darling, darling, darling sister.

I read your poem again today, and it made me laugh outrageously at myself. Thanks, you are beautiful.

Can I make a request? Will you please write me a poem on the following:

1. A poisoned cabbage in a healthy field
2. A rotten apple in a fresh fruit basket
3. A black sheep in a flock of lambs
4. A decaying flower in a temple
5. A leaf detached from a Mango tree in autumn

Any one? Please?
