Sunset spreads its wings upon my time
O Poetry! I haven't learned your rhyme.
To you, O Mahi! I offer my voice,
Though my words are of a poor choice.
Even my thoughts are obsolete,
Express nothing new or concrete.
The beauty of yours, I do not understand
The depth of an emotion I can't comprehend.
Grounded in shallow waters I remain,
Diving in the deep sea waters, I refrain.
The breath of creativity is faint and low
Dim is the light of inspirational glow.
Still Bharati parted me the joy of writing
So thankfully I submit to it without fighting.
I pray to Goddess with a solemn heart
My words are of your high command.
Let your grace fall to create a little jibe
Upon my ignorant being, to catch a vibe.
Note: Mahi or Bharati is a consort of Goddess Saraswati. The word Mahi characterizes the vastness of the field of word and speech.
Sometimes it is used as another name for Saraswati, the Goddess of Language, inspiration and creativity.
A great imagery of sunset is captured with beauty of divinity of Goddess of Vastness. Goddess Saraswati blesses us to give us purity and beauty of education, learning and perception. Sweetness comes through rhyming. A great poem of devotion is beautifully penned ahead of Saraswati Puja. She is also known as Goddess Sharada. An excellent poem is beautifully penned.10
