From The Kneaded Dough Poem by Subrata Ray

From The Kneaded Dough



From The Kneaded Dough.
The Sri Guru implied to go and go
And knead a malleable dough
Of body mind and thought
To be shaped for offerings to the Lord
And to dough and dough and dough on
Until the gross Sanskaras, are gone.
Make your Conscience a vigilant seive,
And screen the subsistence of your thrive
Add the tears of devotion to it
Bake shaped Roti in spiritual heat
And make honest Chapati to feed.
Had I been a Dough to be a hand made bread, ?
Whose hands, whose grace?
Or a pot in Divine Potter's thread
A recipe for the approval of His taste?
Yes yes by wage by wage
I am nearing to the end of my coverage
My Davita with Advaita now in marriage.
