with Sri Ganesh

For That To become Presence and delight…

O Sri Ganesh, You are the embodiment Of that smile and that trust: All that is Is meant For the Lord’s Habitation… Today you are glowing Among the leaves and your bells Are ringing and tinkling, Wakeful and alert To the crystal stream Ever flowing…

Sri Ganesh, Today you appear As the precise Cosmic Dancer, Your steps measured

Through all five elements, Your figures and motions Exact and true And your tread is The origin of sound Where music And form And rhythm
