Inside Out: a picture of sunrise at Dinton Pastures, taken by Ritesh Nigam

This poem is based on a photo of sunrise taken at Dinton Pastures

Far beyond the obvious doubts

Doubts reflect from inside out

Out in perfections of twirling lakes

Lakes that paint the world in wake

Wake your tranquil soul to fight

Fight the darkness in your light

Light the illusions of your trait

Trait that makes you deflate

Deflate the waves of your soul

Soul that makes you extol

Extol the silhouette in the sight

Sight where skies reunite

Reunite with a self ever so true

True to the core is what I want from you

You are the perfection about to sprout

Sprout your way from inside out

Ritesh Nigam
