The epiphany



Epiphany is a sparkling moment
When a realization, like lightning, strikes,
Prompted by some external stimuli,
And drastic changes in perception occur.
Vows are taken and kept effortlessly.
Kalinga War hit Emperor Asoka
For its full of pathos and tragedies,
And made him denounce his thirst for conquests.
Lord Buddha got enlightened like that.
A friend died of lung cancer; I quit smoking.
