bala lotus

in Your blessed heart

I slumber

a lotus seed

curled up tendrils

drowsy little foetus

nurtured and coaxed

to open and expand my

budding petals

On the lake of

black mirrors

I emerge so shy

at first

watch over me

Lord

guide me to let

only light and love

in

one day I pray to be

a garland at Your

Lotus Feet
