Gopi star maidens roam
across an ever widening
void
searching for their darling Giridhari
"Krishna why have You abandoned us?"
"Your foot prints have gone cold and the music
of Your ankle bells are deathly silent"
"The universe is so colossal, baffling,
unfathomable, bewildering and
incomprehensible"
"Where are You?"
"We beg only for Your celestial embrace"
The Lord opens His ginormous, glittering,
galactic blue mouth and laughs
misty worlds evaporate and reappear
Elysian fields, sweet perfumed scents
of Paradise
sweep across our Souls
Beloved Krishna with the cashmere eyes
that old snake charmer
plays His golden flute
Radha seated eternally by His side
The empty jhoola swings
