From My Dateless Dairy -The Day after May Day –Prayers for the arrival of grandchild!-part two

We know the saintly soul is there,
As a savoir, Protector, guarantor
To carry out your will
And lend a helping hand
To weed away,
Our anxious thoughts
And calm us down
Give us the strength,
Both physical and mental
To withstand all the ordeals of life
To face it stoically
And live happily

The happy news of
The Arrival of Twins
At capital city, Delhi
From my beloved student,
An I.E.S officer now
Augurs well and gives a green signal
At the French town of Pondicherry
Everything will end well, here too.
With hope, prayer and
Cautious, moderate expectation
We shall move on,
Without doing any
Trade off in love
With the Lord
When time is ripe and ready,
We shall be delivered
Our dues for the
Honestly stored energy,
Expended in work.

By instinct and temperament,
Despite parental goading,
I hardly had the habit of worshipping you
By visiting temples on
Daily or a weekly basis
I have been always at a
Great distance from you
No craziness to meditate,
And contemplate on
The infinite variety of the supreme
The mind is still soaked
In lusty thoughts and ruminating on
Barren marital sands.

To kick start
The morale and provide some
Comfort and solace
And redirect the engine of life
And make it moving
We need your accelerator.
Let there be more
Copious summer time rain.
We shall learn to
Rejoice and learn more
About laws of life
Whatever happen…
Let things happen
In a natural way, a normal way
As they are destined to
Happen….. (02.05.2005)
