Navaratre- Pledge To Clean My Dirty Walls Poem by Savita Tyagi

Navaratre- Pledge To Clean My Dirty Walls

Rating: 5.0


So many grey and black spots on my wall
When and how they seeped in- unnoticed
Being so busy with world around,
Responsible is my clumsiness-
Of not paying attention to Interior of my house.
A daunting task of over all paint job is required
To remove this ugliness.
How did I let go of it so long?

Like my greed, anger and avarice
It found its way in hard to reach hidden corners.
Finding a best way to remove is my first task.
I look and look and think and think
Grey areas might be easy to paint and hide
But the dark black spots-
How many coats are needed?
Navratre- nine days of goddess worship
To pray for strength, wisdom and good fortune
To transform my dirty walls in a sparking clean house!

Gray and black spots on wall sometimes provoke thought. But responsible devotional attitudes motivate mind and give beauty of hope to sustain with light of mercy of Goddess. Greed, anger and avarice go away and spiritual life begins to become righteous. An interesting poem is beautifully and excellently penned.10
