Short Poem: The Eternal Companion

The Eternal Companion

So beautiful his shadow emerges from the wild.
The bright moonlight illuminates his eyes,
so transpicuous yet so opaque.
To those who see, the universe.
To those who cannot, nothingness.
All existence bows, as he treads forward.
Equilibrium he brings with him,
warrior of the night, guardian of the light.
He rises from the earth, beholds all life.
Thunder is his dance;
rains, the symphonies in disguise.
For, He is Rudra and He
the Shiva!
