When the world outside is still fast asleep.
When the stars are still resting in the lap of dark sky.
When the watchman is still on-duty.
When the life is at a standstill for some,
while
has just started stirring for others.
When the dawn is still waiting to break
When all creatures,
good and bad,
great and small
are still into the world of dreams.
I
am woken up by....
a voice so intimate,
a touch so comforting.
a someone so unpredictable.
I rub my eyes,
and make
an effort to recognize.
The moonlight from the window cracks
helps me reach my goal.
A figure,
the divinity of whose face sends me into a trance.
holds my hand and I,
un-reluctantly tag along .
With a tender jerk,
I find myself
in a world of ecstasy
where people live
and people laugh.
Where hatred and its relatives,
reside in a lone corner.
Where the love and bliss
are the rulers of the kingdom.
Fascinated by a world so perfect,
I question the holy figure,
Is it feasible?
With a smile spreading light all over,
he replies,
yes, it is.
Looking deep in my eyes,
he responds,
You embrace it!!!!
Perplexed by his response,
I beg him to be a bit more explicit.
Another gentle smile
And wham!!!!!!
I get up with a jolt
And find myself,
on my very own bed.
Looking for that figure around,
I am reminded...
of the phrase
You embrace it!!
The dawn has broken
stars are no more visible in the sky
watchman is off-duty
and life has begun.
With my partially opened eyes...
I discover
the sunrays warming and brightening my face.
And that does it!!!
I comprehend the dream...........
It resides within me
I can make it possible.
With a victorious smile on my face
I tell myself,
I do embrace it.
