it was a dream
like real
in the foot of mahadev
i stood alone
watching the paddy fields
green and sparkling
then they came
few men wearing robes
looking around
moving about
searching for something
and then they said
''she has chosen
the blessed spot,
here she will make her camp''
a rectangular piece of land
was then marked
i stood in awe
not knowing
what was on, till eternity seemed to pass
and then some one came to me
''look sir, she will only listen to you
how can she spend the night in the open,
unprotected? will you then plead with her
to give up this thought ?''
I did go with them
there she was
a dazzling moon
bedecked bride
loveliest of fairies
in her best
descended from heavens
ethereal and pure''
i did entreat her
on behalf of the men,
but she in no mood to oblige,
till at last i offered her my little hut
on the stream
and she agreed
to perform her night long puja
there instead........
who was she ?
i asked the men , the devotees with her....
did they say?
only i know.
