My Tulsi Plant Poem by Namita Rani Panda

I water and worship the tulsi in my yard
That's bathed with the morning sunrays
Looks luxuriant and vibrant
As you wish me "good morning"
For a bright and brilliant day!
The essence of insence sticks fills the air
And your wish emanates around me an unfading aura!

In the evening I light a lamp
Before the Chaunra and bow my head
Praying for everyone's well-being
As you wish me "good evening"
And as the flame lights the surrounding
Your wish instills in me the virtue to, though in darkness, spread my ever glowing glare!

At night I look thankfully at my tulsi
Bathed in silvery moonlight
As you wish me "good night"
And I breathe out air perfumed with divine delight
For your pristine love and care
So divine and rare!
