Melody of Bliss

My sorrowful sight sinks in the darkness within to see the sanctum of the soul, still like the deep blue sea. It finds where the torrent of tears I cry flows to lie in the cauldron of the scorched essence till it is dry. Melancholic mind then searches for the sense of glee, like the cheery cloud in the somber sky it floats free. Tinged rays of the new sun flash on the face of gloom, in the barren plant once more the buds of joy bloom. The radiant hues illumine the pallid life to shine bright, the feelings glitter in the divine glow of the inner light. The rapture stream cascades unbound within my heart, there I hear the serene song with melody of bliss start. ___________ May 7, 2023 Contest : Couplet Poetry Sponsored by : Sotto Poet
