The Eternal Philosopher

The Eternal Philosopher

In the midst of a split second 

An emotion slipped from my heart. 

Started twirling whirling, and twisting 

As if it had flower-light feather wings! 

Magic is what dreams are made of.

Feel genuine as long as we are inert

When awake, its canvas fades

But vibrant hues left a rainbow behind! 

Inspire hope with sunshine

It will develop into a sunbeam!

Which breathes life 

It gives you a fresh start! 

When Dusk and Dawn started playing 

Their preferred game Merry Go Round.

Time chuckled and joyfully applauded.

Only the eternal philosopher can hear!

Beautifully written, Madhu. I especially loved the stanza about dreams - it rang so true! They feel real as long as we're not conscious. But in that alternate reality we feel every emotion as deeply as if it was real!

Beautiful  

Read your poem after a long time.

Simply beautiful 

Love the imagery you draw with your words

Adore this lyrical rapture of inspiration and getting inspired, the interplay of visual n tactile imagery and the realm of the Eternal Philosopher who is privy to all happening!! Thumbs up, good one but why have you gone slow on your writings? Yeh Dil mange more!

Because they both incorporate a person's experiences and perceptions, dreams and reality have a lot in common. When reality is the objective experience of the outside world that we observe when awake, dreams are a type of subjective experience that takes place while we are asleep.

Thanks for the good words and appreciation, Lizzie
