Dr.Ram Mehta Poet Rhyme

Flickering Candle Light -Win

The prevailing light encircled by darkness
I hear whispers of light in night’s calmness
A choir warbling bidding out “Iris! Iris”
That engrossed look, rapt delight of Iris.

Flickering and playing she gleams
And with it my hopes and dreams gleam
In light it dances and sways left and  right
Like my Iris swayed in my arms in delight

Like a ballerina she dances casting shadows on walls
Reflecting its beauty thro’ the windows of my soul
The flame casting its light, enlightening  the darkness
What a symbol to embrace in night’s calmness.
