Geetha Jayakumar: Favorites

So precious is your presence, you are pulchritudinous
Honest, noble, honorable, rectitudinous
And that's all that counts
Hero is the source of delight, he endows my soul with great might
Real love is so precious It defies measure
In a world abounding with so many, I sought love and found you
Your presence fills me with poetry, You spur me to take up pen
And a poem, prose and lines
Run on the paper especially when I think of you as subject mines

The old and the diseased have fallen
They're moving forward , on a carpet of needles
I lay among seedlings and sage grass ,

Content , I will lay**–– ...

rending the veils

beyond the void-worlds

time is a drum-beat
that keeps kettlewarm
the count of life

awareness streams
beyond the ego-maze

where blossoms
the deepest bud
of the unwaning flower

that I hold to my *****
not as I,
not as I.

Dawn - a hymn

Dawn - a hymn

There a dawn before the dawns
the first of the Gods that drunk of,
that we have a world
to cherish for:
light beyond all death,
hymn that hearkens to wisdom
a vast beyond the vasts:

oh our anchor past the
storms of lives,

this morning, Regina by love,
may we be of peace
drenched in Thy infinite
presence!

This will be a series of hymns to the Supreme as Goddess - I have found that the march of patriarchal religions has meant that there are very few hymns to address the feminine Divine, which to many seekers is the more natural expression of a Theistic apotheosis. Expect hymns and prayers for various occasions such as dawn, night, start of works, suffering, thanks giving...
