Islands of hope

Clarity of mind is the utmost desire,

& Dedication to the vision is the need of the hour.

Brain forces activity to a grinding halt,

Idleness creeping lik bugs all about.

But no energy to shake the bugs of the devil away,

No will any more to find a better way.

A few islands of hope glimmer in despair's ocean,

Sudden bursts of creativity - scarce the moments of elation..

Islands of hope - few and rare in the dark gleam,

The shattered shards of broken dreams.

A little hope forces one step at a day,

A tiny voice says walk on, labour more pain.....

Slowly the islands grow bigger and so does faith,

Freedom gives my heart wings to to rise as I play!

As I soar with my heart spread in the boundless sky,

It feels the divine beauty, nothing but sheer joy!!!

The restless mind is stilled, the soul is thrilled,

All you have to do is follow your heart's lead!!
