THE VISION

Blazing beings on a star lit sky

Like blazing heart and soul

A hut of weed and clay and straw

And a girl thus sitting by the door

Watching the amber and saffron sky

With teardrops running down her cheeks

They dropped on the fabric of firmament above

And not on her person weak…

Bowed down the clouds to steal them

To conceive some fertile raindrops

And shower them back on the barren souls

To bestow the soil with crops

The crops that would yield only love more n more

And would bring a harvest of colors and smiles

To the aching hearts perched on turbulent shores

And taken was she to the valley of devout

Where the mountain of courage stood tall

And few amongst the blessed were scattered in the vale

All vigilant to the Divine’s call….

She tiptoed on the flints of sacrifice and pain

Carrying in her a yearning heart

And heavens roared and poured its beads

On all the bodies charred..

Their eyes followed the breeze that hovered

Around her being so frail

As her reward was far from fulfilling…

She shrugged and left inmates and the vale

Until He called upon her

to make her stay with Him

And she knew not still if she was content

clueless jaded or grim..

    I love the reference you make with the simile to the harvest and crops. The contrast is amazing between her soul and feelings to a barren land. The beads falling, never ever thought of things that way. Beautifully written as always and the image is just perfect.
