Place





Which place

you come from

child?

whispers Mother’s voice

jolted out

of the reverie

by Mother’s words

mind searches for

a reply

in happiness

it finds

Bharath Ma

it responds

land of warriors

n saints




little one

Amma lets the words settle

before speaking again

dear one

I

Meant

your Place

In Particular






k..mind begins

to answer

n then

it feels

the fear

the heat of truth

a careless question’s

blazing answer







the wound sears deep

scorching its way

to forever remind

to light the torch

on the pathless path

for eyes

so blind







dear Mother..

Forgive me

i understand Your answer..

n i’m Sorry..

we’re at the place

where i stand

in pain

for mind’s carelessless

n beg again

for forgiveness






No child..

Please rise

you have committed

no crime

gathering me

on her lap

She says

this is the answer

to your prashna

this dear one

is the sthhala

where an old king once

..conducted

a yagna
