Namaste Henny,

That poem was new to me. Thanks. Here is another by Mahadeviyakka.

You are the forest

you are all the great trees

in the forest

you are bird and beast

playing in and out

of all the trees

O lord white as jasmine

filling and filled by all

why don't you

show me your face ?

Om Namah Sivaya

Sunlight made visible

the whole length of a sky

movements of wind,

leaf, flower, all six colours

on tree, bush and creeper:

all this

is the day's worship.

 

The light of the moon, star and fire

lightnings and all things

that go by the name of light

are the night's worship.

 

Night and day

in your worship

I forget myself

 

O lord white as jasmine.

Nandaji,

 

thanks very much for the link. I first heard about her from the book

of poetry called 'Speaking of Shiva'. And now, thanks to you, I have

her picture. She is beautiful indeed,

 

veel liefs,

Henny
