Dedicated to You / Shubhalaxmi Lamsal


Shubhalaxmi Lamsal

The patience you showed when I was overwhelmed

the affection you offered when I was hungry for love

the fondness you presented when I was floundering

of motherhood,

the feeding of elixir when I was thirsty.

When consciousness was fading

the holy ash you gave rejuvenated me

you subdued my arrogance caused by indulgence

and blessed me with the palm with blooming lotus .

I am satiated with the elixir

I am delighted with your radiance

and my mind with paucity of knowledge

become richer with your care.

My faint look has been brightened from your light

and now, I am

feeling like being around a sea even at desert

I am cleaning my tiny home with your divinity.

My conscience ignited in your company

my being changed with your proximity

and, henceforth

my entire life is dedicated to you.
