Veiling this soul...

 "Of this darkness-
And the world...
Upside down!
I dream of those tiny stars...
And these clouds-
Above my town,
One fine day-
All shall meet-
The dreams of their own...
To this darkness-
That made me-
A dreamer!
An allegory-
I do love the darkness...
And this hope that- it creates-
To dream-
To dream about the light!

I veiled-

Myself in this darkness"

Author's Note

You need to veil yourself to understand what unveiling actually mean!

to me, the last stanza is most poignant, Sanjeeta. darkness itself is not necessarily a pleasant state to be in, but it indeed does grow dreams of light- of better things. and sometimes we must intentionally metaphorically enter the darkness to create our own vision of light. beautiful work!

I like your writings always :-)!

A revealing poem about making clear our experiences ... by returning to the simple and ordinary.

:) Thank you.

Deeply, richly woven tapestry of your soul... threads of beautiful darkness, yet with hints of glimmering light to come... It moved with such grace... such elegance.

[Sanjeeta Sharma Pokharel "Hridayaninadini"]

Wonderful, your review is.

[Leslie Philibert]

Yes, and may I read another meaning into this,about veils in a religious sense, and women ?

Poetry has no boundary. Interpret, the way you like.

Powerful and strong words dear Poet.
"I veiled-
Myself in this darkness"
Most people carry a veil. Hide to show true self. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
