A Desire Poem by ritty patnaik
A Desire
in hours of darkness,
your thoughts shined,
like bright stars, illumining,
my very being.
almost dead i was,
you gave me life,
and desire to live,
love and closeness,
which fills my heart.,
with divine essence.
at the time of death,
you promised to be near,
so what fear!
when death comes near,
i shall, be with you,
and further still,
beyond time and space.
grant me desire,
of wanting to get
absorbed in infinite,
like glow worm,
heads for candle,
and loses itself in flame.
and for this desire,
i shall be born,
yet again, and again,
till my soul, merges
in your infinity! !
Like glowwaorm heads for candle... final union with the supreme- attaining salvation your style is simple and effective. you convey profound insights in a few short lines Mamta

ohh yes, this poem actually describes the process of rebirth. desire...springs, from ego-the root of existence. and until and unless its all absorb in the infinity...u will be reborn. the desire for deliverance, is a desire too! yes, loved the poem...totally. thank you.
even shorn of the religious fervor...the poem is beautiful on a philosophical level... i enjoyed reading it its so easy and fluid great penning cheers

In the last para you have artistically and poetically highlighted the Hindu concept of re-birth! This same concept had once made me to write, - ' Erring on The Positive Side'! I always pray for 'Moksha' till the very end! A deserving ten! -Raj Nandy
