This blog is dedicated to my dearest Krishna...mostly poetry, sometimes through the words of a Gopi, and sometimes, just my own musings...

Krishna- You are...

You are the Lord of my heart,
You are the life in my blood,
You are the breath in my existence,
And You are my One and all.

You are the life of my paltry verse,
You are the death of my thoughts adverse;
You are the Ranganatha on my mind-bed,
You are the Parthasarathy of my mind-chariot.

You are the goal of my life,
And my Guide, too in the strife.
i may be nothing but an ignorant idiot-
You are all i have, my dearest IDIOT.

You are my companion in all times,
You are the patient listenr of my whines.
You are my puppeteer,
And when in trouble, my dear musketeer!

You are all that is defined by my wishes,
You are all that is undefined by the word love.
You are my Science, when life is scientifical-
And when life is unreasonable, all that is unscientifical.

You are my craving,
You Yourself are my blessing.
You are my desire,
You are this cold heart's fire.

Refuge is Your lotus feet,
Respite is Your beautiful smile.
Relishing Your each and every fickle action,
Rejoicing at being Your surrendered slave.

You are my Victory,
For, to You, i have lost!
You are my surrender,
You are the one who makes me maddened and wander!

  1. Wonderful composition.

    //You are the Ranganatha on my mind-bed,
    You are the Parthasarathy of my mind-chariot.//

    Loved these two lines a lot.

    Jai Shri Ram!

  2. Stunning, you have a beautiful way with words. I too adore this:

    "You are the life of my paltry verse,
    You are the death of my thoughts adverse;
    You are the Ranganatha on my mind-bed,
    You are the Parthasarathy of my mind-chariot."

    Keep writing. Haribol!

  5. Beautiful! The poem brings a smile on my face.

    "May be nothing but an ignorant idiot-
    You are all i have, my dearest IDIOT."

    Especially liked your child-like approach :-)
