In Quest of Love

In quest of love,

I posed a question: Who is Swami?

A Rose answered:

He is the most charming prince,

His smile more beautiful than mine.

The Seasons beamed:

He fills the air with love,

And He is the Festival of Spring.

The Rainbow said:

He is more dazzling than me,

He adds colour to life.

The Poet sans:

My pen quivers at His glory,

I remain incomplete in writing His story.

The Moon said:

I dare not look into His eyes,

Since I may fall in love with Him.

The Great Hanuman said:

He is my Rama of Kali Age,

I serve Him at every stage.

The innocent Gopika said:

He stole our butter,

And then our butter like hearts too.

Then Swami's students said:

He is our Rama, our Krishna,

Manifestation of "Love" itself.

His merciful glance

Can freeze the breeze,

Can blind the time.,

His limitless compassion,

Is eternal and sublime.
