Darkness or Light
In the darkness lies the secret to all that renews
The seeds of morrow, buried hopes that sprout wings
Although unseen, they need love, care, and faith
Without, they shrivel and wither…
All that wanes moves on,
Heralding a fresh start and,
We scamper, looking for refuge in the dust as it settles.
Nature’s “terrible beauty” or “trumpet of prophecy”
What is it that resounds around?
Oh, we hear, we hear,
Discern or otherwise
purblind or evolved
Our cages may leave us slow
Resistant to growth
Festering prejudices
We dig shallow graves for humanity…
Or
We shall overcome
As we draw strength from our roots,
we light for ancient wisdom
for universal brotherhood,
trust, and compassion.
And together we march…
Away from fear
Into the realm of hope…
Anu Maheshwari
