Awakening
waking up to the light
blinded almost by the brightness
the soul shines forth
a being stands not far from the sight
a soft scent is present
whether it is jasmine or rose scent
the place is flooded by light
there is no room for dark or night
when thoughts hang heavy in the mind
bringing down the morale of the kind
let alone and go towards the light
which lies buried deep within, alright
life is a journey where you live and learn
it is but a next step in the stage of evolution

entry for Announcing the Steemit School Poetry 100 Day Challenge! (Total Prize Fund 2000 SBD)
I write poems to express myself. I started writing at the age of twelve or so and some of my poems were published in magazines for children, a time when print still ruled the world. The internet and the blogging world has helped me write poems. Most of it was as I wrote earlier, to express myself and my thoughts. I have also been a ghostwriter.
Steemit has helped me write with freedom and also earned me very good friends who encourage me to write. I hope my readers will support me and also join in this contest. I am not a student of literature and so I do not consider myself an expert in poetry. It is the judge who will decide.
