Light Cones
In the limitless expanse of light
I can see each reflection assayed
Each unseen desire turning from
Being to not-being
The universal eid
Surrounded by countless bright spheres
Ever-expanding hope of orbs
Always getting absorbed in distances
Which perforce have to turn from end to origin
(I can see) the negation of time
The eye of past, present and future
Concentrated on one point of time
In the cone of the epitome of light
All three time zones come for perception.
(Translated from the original Urdu into English by Satyapal Anand)

Your perception and description of light, in my opinion, equals only to Dante Alighieri.As always impressive and touching, Naseer.

Time zones very interesting...to know we can see history alive and planets that have gone, with a ring of to be or not to be....thanks for the insight...regards
