276. WHAT A DOWNFALL!
There was a timeWhen I prayed to God
For Eternity’s sunrise.
Now I am praying to God
Only for a fleeting flame.
Alas, alas,
What a downfall!
Sri Chinmoy, Ten Thousand Flower-Flames, Part 3, Agni Press, New York, 1979
When I prayed to God
For Eternity’s sunrise.
Now I am praying to God
Only for a fleeting flame.
Alas, alas,
What a downfall!
