Click hereOnce King Sagar's 60,000 sons
went berserk with Muni Kapil's cows'n nuns
He cursed them to stay'n rot in Hell
& no one to Sagar was the tale to tell !
Many moons later Sagar's lone residual heir
Prince Bhagirath a noble adventurer did bear
this Descendant came to know One day
how his accursed grand-uncles passed away
then with many sweet pleas & tears
he melted the Muni's hard-hearted gears
So Kapil Muni passed an exemption clause
an Exception remains in many strict Laws
If somehow the Goddess Ganges
in Riverine form would pass over the ranges
where 60,000 bones were strewn
their souls would of curse be forgiven !
Lo & behold @ that exact instant
a Divine spat between 3 co-wives happent'
Narayan's 2 consorts --Laxmi & Ganga
ganged up on Saraswati for foul-tongued tempa'
All three were banished to Mortal Earth
There was joy in Bhagirath's home'n hearth
He performed austere penance day & night
In bitter Himalayan cold he did'nt give up fight
At last Lord Shiva agreed to give a Boon
Acceptin'Heavenly Ganges in Hair next to Moon
Arrogant Ganga thought Shiva she'd blow away
her force lost it's power & she her way !!
It's said fiery Shiv-Ling the Ganges doth cool
But some say Lord Shiva tamed wildcat-hussy fool
Bhagirath prayed "O Lord , let Ganga go free"
soft-Hearted Shiva complied immediately
At Gangotri Ganga emerges onto earth
& rushes down to secure a Bay of Bengal berth
Across North India's Indo-Gangetic plain
Fertile alluvial soil she gifteth 'gain'n again
As she rushed over the UnterWorld
Sagar's sons were returned to life ,newly bold
So Erectus Ganga is also called Bhagirathi
'coz Prince Bhagirath brought her to you'n me !!
How strange's
the river Ganges?
Home of ashes
deliverer
of the dead.
Ash, I fived
this is one time I would forgive rhyming couplets
doth cool
wildcat-hussy fool
reason for language shift?
Now on a serious note, some time ago I received an email from you R U egyptian...so I look at the poems, no comment. I don't know you, you don't know me. Should it matter? I saw your comment on that asshole poem, after you post a "why can't we get along" riff. Apparently it does matter to you, thereby making you a bit of a hypocrite. Also it is nice to have friends, etc, praise, etc., but this ain't facebook. And I ain't telling what to like or dislike. What I am saying is, is you are serious about writing, fans are your worst enemy, and closed circle critic, is not criticism. What can I say, all comments I have seen by you are extremely shallow. I hope that when you visit say a Demure 101, you are paying attention.
Congrats on reining in some of the excessive punctuation.
naked into the water at Sangam, the confluence of the rivers Ganges, Yamuna and mythical Saraswati together and cleanse ourselves of sin my brother-5
