Beyond the Horizons

Beyond the Horizons

I was trying to visualize 
The images which always flashes from
Beyond the horizons
Where the Sun spreads  
Its golden beams.

I was trying to imagine 
The images of my dreams
Beyond the horizons
Where the sky and earth
Embrace each others and meet.  

I was trying to see
The images of my dreams
Beyond the horizons
Where love floats and fly in the air
With its beloved in the limitless sky.

But I could see only 
The never ending darkness of trees
And beyond that, the shadows of hills
Diminishing in the paleness of sinking Sun
Hiding in their darkness
Mysteries of many
Untold stories.

We all often try to look beyond
The horizons
Knowing very well, that
No one can see and touch
The mystery that lies
In the darkness of trees and 
In the shadows of hills.

Still we keep trying to explore and find
That perhaps some day
We may feel and find the mystery 
Which lies beyond the horizons of sky
And the beauty
Which lies even in the sadness of life.

Simone Segal September 10, 2010 at 2:57 PM Hello Ravindra, What a beautiful poem, We may not be able to live in the know, but we sure can live in the mystery! Thank you, i'm very well, but so busy presenting a TV show called Mind, Body and Sol, also promoting The Gift. I miss the soup, hope to soon find some time! We become what we think about, it's true!!! Hope you too are well, lots of love, SimoneXXX

Poet Destroyer A September 4, 2010 at 10:29 AM A very well expressed poem, of the sun and its horizon. It is hard at times to imagine all the beauty beyond things that blind us. A sure way to keep dreams and darkness near the light. Many thoughts join my mind as I read your poem , yes a little twist at the end,..Enjoyed Your poem, Ravindra have a good day,.p.d.
