Poem : Mother Durga Is Coming

(Photo credit Ravi Roshan,free download from pexels)




My heart whispers -- Mother Durga is coming.

So many words rise within me,
yet they remain unspoken.
The thoughts of heart
Stay  locked within.

Last time, I had wished to say --
O Mother, grant me the strength
to gift my wife a new sari,
to clothe my child in fresh attire --
But the words never left my lips.

Instead,within my heart I prayed
O Slayer of Demons,
do not falter in Your battle !
Yet even that remained unsaid.

And when You arrived ,Mother,
Your Presence filled me with such joy
That I forgot everything else.

But this time I shall speak,
I must speak ----
Mother, make me the demon myself
Mother, make me the demon.

You  are  in  song, You  are  in  poem, You  are  in  dance drama, You   are   in   rhythm. You   are   strength, You   are   devotion, You   are   peace, In   every   emotion. In   every inspirational   thought, In   every   good dream, You   reside, Within  the  heart's gleam. ------------------------ Poet : Dr. Goutam  Kumar  Mallick
