Tranquility

One day

I saw a glowing man.

If you pricked his finger

With a thorn

Light would flow

In place of blood



Oh God!  Why o why

Had I thought of

Hurting him?



He never spoke a word.

His countenance wore a tender smile

Had he read my thoughts?

His lotus eyes showered bliss



All waves ceased.

  1. Hypnotic and a sense of sacred legend in this poem. The lingering image is the "lotus eyes".

  4. A glowing man would definitely be a sight to see... good not to think of hurting those who are different.

  5. this may be a stretch from the subject, but this kind of reminds me of science and how it feels it is necessary to poke and prod, and cut open beautiful and interesting people, places and things in order to understand them.
