THE ALCHEMIST <br /> <br />Those alchemists of days of old, <br />Tried desperately to transform metals <br />to gold! <br />But all their efforts remained futile, - <br />Like those who tried to excavate gold <br />from the Nile! <br />While I continue to marvel at His magical <br />powers, <br />When I see Him perform during the night; <br />As He directs those scorching rays of the <br />sun, <br />On that barren moon, to make it bright! <br />He transforms those piercing solar rays, <br />Into golden beams, on moonlit nights, <br />To bathe our earth with its golden sheen, <br />Creating a wondrous magical scene <br />before our sight! <br />While all our boast of physics and chemistry, <br />Remains dwarfed before His supreme alchemy! <br /> <br /> -Raj Nandy <br /> New Delhi <br /> 20 Aug 08<br /><br />RAJ NANDY<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-alchemist-8/
