Earthly Worship

by Dr. Madhavi Lata Agrawal

When I meet you my Lord

My emotions I can never show

The richest feeling

I have for you

Shall always remain untold

I believe in the Lord

And I know He will bide

His time, before I can

Claim him to be mine.

The time will come

Don’t know when and where

When the Lord shall proclaim-

That this earthly being

Has won Him – and now

“She is forever mine”.

Such bliss I hope for

Don’t know when

But I am certain,

That one fine day

The stars shall shine

With the divine worship

Of this earthly woman.

Comments on this Poem

The poet has been a spiritual entity. She is made up of flesh and blood. The lust mars her feelings as well. But her desire to worship God has been self-effacing. She mentions in her prayer as to when and where but she did ever question how?
She has been His shadow incognito. But with all the thoroughness of her feelings she deifies the chosen god for surrender. The time is not yet ripe for the appropriate to accept her. The poet has a staunch belief that her coveted deity would oneday take her on His lap for the full consummation of worshipping.
The mundane woman poet would be the blest entity of spiritualism in course of time.
Her devotion has been complete for fulfilment.
