happy dassera 2022

Dearest Mother, as all who believe
Began to invoke you, you slurred me
With blows as rows of dust and grime
Flittering about in the air, eager as I was
To invoke you too I fell into a sea 
Of despondency and I vowed to never seek
You again; some vows are to be broken
And some are not: The vow I have taken
To honour you from womb to womb
Can never be forsaken; as you leave blessings
Within this magical atmosphere of dhanuk smoke
I invoke you everyday, for teaching me
That ten days are not enough to bestow
Love upon you for your love shines upon me
Eternally.
