Krishna Poems

Warning of Krishna-A Translation

Wandering in the woods for years,
Trials and Tribulations without fears,
Scorching heat, thorns and flood flow,
Came the Pandavas with a divine glow.
For days not Fortune lay wrappen,
Wait and Watch the thing to happen.
 
To manifest the clan’s worth,
To show the righteous path on Earth,
To bring Duryodhan into sense,
To prevent Massacre of Vehemence,
Came Hastinapur the Almighty,
The Message

Haribol

My dear Lord Hari,
You are the supreme attainment for all living beings.
Each day devotees drink the nectar of chanting your holy name.
They pray to the acharyas
To understand your pastimes, 
Which is like food for the stomach,
And honey to the ear.
Blessed are those who take shelter of your lotus feet,
Where even the lowest of creatures may

Water's Bind

Stepping in water, displacing the pool.
Walking prudently in body and mind. 
For there is no room for a squatter, 
forcing spillage over water’s bind  

Secure a space for your form, 
sitting gingerly at witness. 
One cannot see past the water's norm. 
Hence be one within it.

Love Shree Shree Radhe Krishna

I waited from the sunrise until the last ray of Sun.

There is no shore for my emotions that are drowning

A voice yelled deep in me: Be patient it can be smooth; 
it can be fine.

Enough arguing between the thoughts: some said, 
What is happening? Others said to wait for the moment that is yours, soon

What Lord Krishna Said Us

Lord Krishna had told long time ago-
Grave words like the sea not hollow:
"In the time of industrial & modern age,
People would be the birds in a golden cage:
Where they'd born with the wings colouring
But they'd forget the tune of how to singing,
People of modern time would be heartless
They'd be the cause of blame, never confess!
Science

Krishna Has An Ink Effect In Our Greater Supplication These Days

Krishna has an ink effect in our greater supplication, these days!

How come?
From when?
For quite a few days! Since I returned from Bangladesh.
It seems quite a hazard! 

Are you in truce with your landlady?
That is another epic ! An enormous one !
Attuned harmony, cryptocurrency in scripted Java, and Architectural Parthenon, ding dong, in ping pong

And I

Premium MemberSmile Back

Play a Krishna mantra
Hear the rain pattering down
Cars knifing wet wind
Distant dogs howling
Even the tinnitus 
ringing in my ears
Anything but the 
narrative 
playing in my head
Poison 
from the well of 
quiet desperation
of loneliness 
of false perception 
Just because the world 
doesn't smile back at you
once
doesn't mean it doesn't
I just don't perceive 
So
make the blood rush

Tell Dear Krishna, But Scold Him Not

Krishna grew up in Gokul town with foster parents. He was not only the darling of his parents who pampered him, but the whole township, caught in his charms, loved him. He won the hearts of men and women alike during the childhood he spent in Gokul. But then it was time for him to

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...

I have no idea how to teach this cute little guy,

Krishna Creates

Krishna trims the hedges
an artist in heart, he shapes them
creates three tiers, the bottom one big
 the center small, the top one medium.
Fortunate to have him as my gardener.

I watch Krishna  from the  patio
He cuts  humming a hit song
of yester years
ammavum neeye , appavum neeye
 The same way the playback singer

Solution To the Ego Illusion

1. Avoid Manichaean Concepts and Boxing - making categories - of Human Beings 

2. Watch your thoughts intensely, but kindly: judge no one, not even yourself. Enjoy the drama. We are actors anyways (Ask Shakespeare, or Hindu thinkers who flesh out the concept of Maya and "Krishna Lila.") Do STOP obvious evils.

3. ACCEPT: you are
