Foe to Friend

Image courtesy: Google

I nestled quiet and sleeping

in the deep darkness soothing,

blissful oblivion of awakening light

nurturing slumber in a permanent night.

Rays that enlightened I feared,

unending darkness I cheered.

My formidable foe clad in colours of light

once came knocking at my door shut tight.

“Darkness  my friend, lend a hand!”

my cries echoed in the surrounding sand

where I lay, a dormant seed

an ignorant, insignificant bead.

Blinded soon by a beam so bright

I watched helpless, a losing fight;

the miracle brought joy in the end

of turning foe into a friend.

In the warm embrace of bright rays

of knowledge, promising meaningful days,

I danced and swayed in sheer bliss

of a new found friend’s loving kiss.
