Kash Poet Poet Verse

An Everglowing Candle

Boundless sea
and magnanimous sky
remind me very often
how tiny I am---
how fragile this human body is.

But deep inside me
an inner voice starts speaking
which crosses the limit of myself
and mingles with nature's vastness.

An everglowing candle
dispelling the darkness
from time immemorial.
