LIGHT.....- BY A BLIND……

Yes, I can see no light, nothing bright

thus I muse me blind.

Light, Dark, Shadow, Flame beseem alike to

my naïve mind.

Light they say blesses the entire world,

but me.

And affects every creature that hath life,

Including me.

Yet, I see no light, nothing bright

Oh! Pardon, so I’m blind.

Nothing, plunges to fill in when,

I flicker the switch.

Nothing, surges up with speed unseeen when,

I blink my eye.

Nothing, rushes to enwrap when,

I flame up a candle.

Nothing, flushes up quickly when,

I put off the fire.

Nothing changes the black of night to the white,

while they call it day.

I see no twinkles above my head,

Stars are shining when they say.

Yes, indeed I am the one with no sight,

But, dear world, I am not without light.

I am the light of my own soul

The murmurs of my courage will envelop the world whole.

I will curve my lips and my smile will

Brighten up your day

I will laugh so hard that its echo will

Twinkle in your lone hours.

I will speak and my words will enwrap

Your troubled life with hope.

I will walk on obscure path and my swagger will

Radiate your weary soul.

I am my own light and I will

Effulge in the dark of my own life.

I see no shadows, my light dose’nt  hide

My vigour glows enough to spread far and wide

My light does not die with blow one or thousand

I have conscience that offers me a helping hand

My beams do not cut off with flick of a plug.

It spreads in mind and spirit like,

warmth of a hug.

My light is no sun, whose brightness,

with tears will blind my eyes.

Oh! Dear world, I am already blind,

But I am not without light.
