Dr.Ram Mehta Poet Limerick

Blind Faith (Limeric)

Faith is like radar that sees through the fog
When faith is forced by reason agog
When it becomes blind it dies
It is like a bird that feels
Light in dark dawn still defog.

In faith there is enough light
For those who want to believe it
But for those who don’t believe
Enough shadows to blind the eye
I for one like the colour of the Dwait.

========================

For contest : Blind Faith
Dwait (In Hindu mythology) means you can reach God thro’ a Guru (Master). Master can be 
anyone in your life, but generally it is the mother.

Rauwolfia Ra May 26, 2010 at 9:19 PM True in a sense, people who don't believe in certain things can't always see how others can.

De R May 25, 2010 at 1:37 AM Faith is a very important part of our lives. Without it, we can never achieve happiness and share our feelings. Beautiful writing:)

Joseph Spence Sr May 24, 2010 at 1:33 PM This is excellent. Faith is the evidence of things unseen. I like this poem on faith. It's like seeing through the third eye of the chakras. Keep writing. Blessings, Joseph
