Mahadeva Poem by C. P. Sharma

MAHADEVA

The onset of Ganpati Puja
reminds of Mahadeva
His phenomenal lifestyle, marriage and children.

Sitting on Kailash
He eternally meditates
Flora and fauna surround
The Divinity awaits

From His matted hair
The Ganges flows
On his forehead
The crescent moon adorns

Wrapt in lion hide
With trident walks
Smeared in ashes
With weired flocks

His marriage a freak
Groom's dress unique
Riding on the Oxen
Marriage party antiique

Among his sons
Kartikeya rides on
The peacock's back
All earth and sky tracks

Other son's vehicle mouse
Wearing elephant head
To first worship roused
Above all divinity treads

Perfect blending of Nature in Shiva
He is the God of gods, Mahadeva a go
