A Desperate Call

A case of hopelessness

Cries and screeches silently

Midst the turbulence of

Reluctance and inaction

May Nature shake her up

Nay Nature jolt everything out

Of her presence to open

Her heart and her eyes

To see the Divine

Wide and clear 

As if she extends her hands 

And touch the Divine Mother 

Only with her grace.

But she is deep in her slumber

Extremely scared, afraid and choked-

Is she alone?

Will her mind recognize

When the Divine Mother descends

In front of her

Or will she continue 

To beat in ignorance

Instead of chiseling herself 

In a beautiful devotional piece?

She has made choices 

Out of mess

And her mind is scared

Who is hers? Has everyone left?

She extends her arms-

A swish of empty air.

Where is Mother? Where is Mother?

She throws her limbs

In desperation

She is silent, she smiles and laughs

But a void is within 

Which no one can ever fill

Except My Mother Divine!

Will You not come

When I remember you

Midst all festivities,

Smiles and sweets

And like an empty bowl 

I roll here randomly

Despite all glam and glitter

Around me

And Maa, only you do I seek!

Om! Om! Om!
