Little Krishna

Oh little Krishna! My ink sprinkles in hues of devout love as your glory I pen in reverence My eyes forget to blink: spellbound Oh! the sparkle in those little lotus eyes My mind's music magically blooms and sings in praise - your beauty and grace as your mor mukut gently moves when tiny legs dance in glee Do You know... the soul of silence seeks to remain silent and merge with your pure divine self: Is it a stillness so craftily created to respond to thy call of Divine Bliss? Or is it a crave to melt in your mellifluous music as your flute tune wafts in soft wind? A moment when the steps of time will slow and stop: just for a moment and the entire universe will gaze in awe entranced by its enchantment... Oh my little Krishna...

Thank you for the visit and comment Victor. This is a tribute to our Hindu God Lord Krishna. Though He is worshipped in various forms, this little Krishna is the most famous form... Have a blessed day... ~ Ani
