Devi

My desire for gold fades, When the turmeric on her Falls on the lotus near her feet. I doubt my manhood of anger and wrath, When her vermilion falls on the white Jasmine. The sandalwood powder on the Champa flowers cracks my dry logic! Oh!Devi, What have you done to me? Which can never be undone By my will or frill ! A daring boy, This ambitious man, Melts and flows to fall at your feet. Leaving his manhood like the falling of a dry leaf! Without shame I stand, For your never coming reply. Just in joy of your ignorance! Is it your bait? For my long wait. I shall wait! Even if you are late. For you are my soulmate! -Yashas Ray
