It’s Nowhere But Within Us!.. Once upon a time, years and years ago In a land, where the sun never set, there was always light, strong, yellow, bright rays, lit up all their days. Nights too—were due, And darkness never came through. The sun that never set was a bright flame, beating, burning, refusing to rest. Its light spilled into every vein, a thousand golden roads leading to the best. And one day, when light threatened to blow away, asked a child, "But where does this light come from?" "This light, resides no where but within us" came the reply. For this great light was on no land at all, but a kingdom of marrow and breath, where rivers of red carried warmth, and bones stood tall as mountains. Sloka Kadiyala Grade 10
