954. Are You Stone-Hearted Mother? 120208

Rating: 5.0


Being low-born, poor, ugly and hostile
Prone to make hundreds of bungles
I always become unfit to win affairs.
People weigh my love against situations!
In the balance my nutty heart descends
And is thrown into sacrificial flames!

Maa,
Scriptures and saints have been yelling,
You forever being ocean of compassion
Are ready to receive me with no condition.
Knowing this I try to set a path to reach You.
Alas! I know not where You are!
And I know not how to come to You!

Like a lost kid in a jungle I cry,
To attract Your attention I try,
Calling out Your thousand sweet names!

Scriptures say Your eyes penetrate everywhere.
Your ears are capable of hearing even pin drops!
If so…
How is that possible for You to quietly sit
Hidden, stone hearted and not moved a bit? !

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

How can a mother be stone-hearted. There is no Sivan without Sakthi. The Unifversal Mother is always kind to her children. If she is unkind, the whole world wouild have been destroyed by now. She knows what her children wanrt and give them what they want at the appropriate time. Savithiri is also a mother to her two children. How she is kind to her children. The same way Universal mother also is kind to all of us, who are her children. The poem speaks well of savithiri's frustration and inner feelings for getting mother's grace. A poem well written.
