“The First Thought” is a gentle poem that looks at the beauty of our first, unfiltered thoughts—the ones that come before the day’s noise. It celebrates the pure inner whispers that hold deep emotions, forgotten memories, and hidden truths.

The poem encourages us to value these brief moments, as they often lead to self-discovery, healing, and inspiration.

The First Thought

In morning’s hush before day breaks,
A whisper stirs, the stillness shakes.
No reason dressed it, nor fear defined—
It bloomed within, a thought in mind.

Not shaped by logic, soft and shy,
It flickered like a passing sigh.
A dream, a name, a silent tear,
A truth once close, now crystal clear.

Why hush the thought that dares arise,
That dances quietly behind our eyes?
Unpolished, raw, yet deeply wise—
It holds the rhythm where heartbeats lie.

Mine once said, “Be free, just be,”
Like leaves released from autumn’s tree.
And in that breath, I felt alive—
No longer just to cope, but thrive.

So jot it down, let thought take flight,
It is your soul’s own guiding light.
A spark that cuts through morning haze,
To brighter hearts and brighter days.
(Vijay Verma)

BE HAPPY… BE ACTIVE… BE FOCUSED… BE ALIVE
