Shiva 4- Prithvilingam-Kanchipuram Poem by Indira Renganathan

Her act elvish of closing the Lord's eyes
All lives while smothered of darkness
Wild Shiva cursed the Goddess
That Parvathi dark like then pervading darkness
Expiated error on penance by prayers
To Earth-Lingam or Ekambereshwar to redress
Under a mango tree of austere sensors
Unobstructed even by Vegavathi's bursting floods
Retorted the Providence by Her efforts arduous

Truth is beauty flourished Earth when cherished
Of fecundity, fertility healthy, hearty, green swarded
Is truth beauty ruined Earth when perished
Of quake, ache, Drought, clout, blood and flood

What could the reason be else
Than man to commune with godliness
Should hence ever be in compliance
Mother Earth he to idolize
Wishes such the Providence
Prithvilingam reasonably with oblations
