Benediction Poem by Mamta Agarwal
Benediction
I stirred, moaning turned on my side, feeling a bit wane
Someone knocked… oh; it was rain at my windowpane.
My eyes drifted languorously to clock in the night light.
Still haunted by the demons, that tormented me all night.
Soon rain withdrew, clouds departed, watched blue sky
Getting into my jogging gear, I felt a surge of energy.
Went to banks of Yamuna, to watch it sparkle at Sun rise
Did droplets drip from Neem tree as benediction to exorcise….
The river Yamona got its name from the godess Yamona, who was married to the Sun... so it says in Wikipedia... the water, the sun, the tree... benediction, indeed, to start a new day in total harmony with these elements, all necessary conditions for human life on earth... benediction - blessing - but it also means 'the well said'...
mamtaji, the word 'windopane' is the most reccuring one in sandraji's poems.... i see krishna dancing with you near yamuna......knowingly, you had stolen his reed...krishna nee begane baro....(Krishna..you come fast toward me....Kannada original keertan)

The magical sound of raindrops on a windowpane is always pure poetry. And the benediction of sunrise warms the soul. You paint a beautiful poem picture.10/10. Always your friend, Sandra
