Poems

Deepavali

 

 

It is the sequel 
To the earlier dawn of liberation 
In the dark backward
And abysm of legendary time, 
When the incarnate 
Ogrish horror scored
Endless goals of gore
Agaist humanity;
And the divine power 
Turned the tide 
Into a victorious sitter
Of triumph 
Against the sport of sanguine death
In the field 
With a fatal finish.
This dawn awakens 
In grateful warmth of heart
To the Lord of Lords,
When every drop 
Of water
Is a Ganga of ablution 
And
The grace auspicious
Of
The beaming goddess of largesse 
In peak of showers 
Swells and smiles
While
The shriven sin 
In
Contrite bliss of calm, 
Hails without gall
The festive morn
Saluting the new linen 
And
The annointed sheen 
Of countless souls.
His true self gained, 
He
Basks in universal love
Of
Illumination.
