Before Darshan

Tricklings of time
dropping through my vision
one look stops the world

the red carpet is spread
fragrance garlanding Lord Krishna
one look stops the world

to be actively passive
and passively active
there must be Being

sometimes the holy descends
sometimes the holy waits
hovering

may I receive
what I was meant
to receive

may I live
as I was meant
to live

may I love
as I was meant
to love

may I give
as I was meant
to give

only the essential
ever from the Self
radiating Self

~Naina Lepes
