DARK AND LIGHT...





The grey sheaths of mist stealthily move
Cutting across the silent darkness,
The silence of bliss,
Or is it the fear!
Fear of the darkness
And the unknown..
The unknown 
Waiting beyond the dark contours
Of a hilly terrain,
The soul swims through
The huge waves of darkness
Darkness of a dead night
When not even the owl cries,
The heart suffocates on the damp air,
The soul in pain, groping through
Is about to fall in that everlasting black hole,
When peeps in the light,
The light in the far horizon,
Showing the way 
To the lost soul,
The choking heart,
The radiance reflects,
Gleams in the eyes,
Is it a Temple?
Or is it a Mosque?
No it has to be a Church ,
Or even a Gurudwara!
The heart does not care,
Nor does the soul bother,
For it has seen the light 
The guiding light,
A shaft of radiance
Steering it through ,
Through the dark clouds of ignorance,
Towards illumination,
A light that is soothing and bright,
The light of knowledge and wisdom,
Granting the soul a clear vision.
