Renuka-The Mother

The most revered mother seated in the valley
Among the seven sacred hills of Ramashringa
Blessing all her children with love overflowing
Who seek refuge in her with devotion flooding.

She favours all without any discrimination 
The high and lowly that seek her protection
Ever ready to atone their offenses numerous
Wait patiently to bless the children anxious.

It is a sight to see the mother in her finery
Seated majestically in lotus posture lovely
Her lustrous eyes oozing compassion gently
Her gentle hands shower blessings profusely.

The divine mother forever cares for children
With great concern for their overall well-being
Sometimes censuring and all the time cajoling
Provide them all comforts without their asking.

The glory of the divine mother is indescribable
Where the holy scriptures truly feel miserable
But the mighty Mother of the entire universe
Willingly embraces her errant kids in distress.

Never have I worshipped her great with ardor 
Nor spent my time chanting her sacred name
Yet, I know her infinite kindness and grace
So, ask her to shield and take me in her care.

O! Ocean of mercy, supporter of all beings
Overwhelmed with danger I call on Thee
Think not about my past deeds and idiocy
And bless me mother with thy kind mercy.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
