Lotus Feet Poem by Rajkumar Mukherjee

Lotus Feet

Rating: 5.0


Lotus Feet


believer or non-believer

the chanting of ‘Hare Krishna’

with the rhythm of ‘Mridangam’

‘Khol’ and ‘Kartal’

permeates a chime in the veins

the blood-cells dance like ions

and participate

in ecstatic dance of love

when you never know


the rhythm

the tune- the chime

drives you crazy

chanting becomes quicker- louder

your mind and body balances your feet

attaining the height of happiness

the rhapsody of joy

you fall to the Lotus feet

in abject surrender
