The River Gomati-Win

O grandma *Gomati, was born on thy bank And born of a mother bearing your name On all the yesterdays your water I drank Am still the part of your pattern and frame. My blood flows in thy stream meandering It’s a kind of earthly immortality, I stand by you and feel kinship endearing Know not much about gods but your affinity I learnt to strive, to sink and to seek depth ever Simply Hydrogen and Oxygen doesn’t make water Something third is needed to make you what you’re Nobody knows except you Ma and your Creator. ******* Dr. Ram Mehta June29, 2011 Twelwth Place win in Contest: best dedication poem by P.D. ================================= *Gomati is the name of the river in Gujarat State of India. My home town Dwarka where Lord Krishna ruled once, is on the bank of River Gomati. My mother too was born there and she was christened as Gomati after the name of the river.
