dear adiyaargale
we come to the next part of these wonderful poems

KRISHNA'S MEAL
**************

Kanha eats in Yasoda's lap.
some he eats, some he drops,
as the ladies of N
andgaon watch,
some he eats and some he puts
in Nanda's mouth,
this joy is beyound recount.
some he eats, some gives to gopas,
butter in his hands, curd in doniyas (small cups of woven leaf).
the joy of Yasoda
the three worlds cannot account.
the meal is over, Kanha washes,
for Sur the left-overs count.

KRISHNA ANGRY AT HIS HAIR-BRAID NOT GROWING
*******************************************
Mother, when will my hair-braid grow?
milk you said will make it grow,
but still it remains so short.
Mother when will my hair-braid grow
you said like Bal it would be strong,
his braid has grown fat and long,
combing , braiding, bathing, drying,
to the ground like a serpent writhing.
for me you say milk is better.
never delicious bread and butter,
Sur, long live the two brothers,
the twosome of hari and haldhar(balram).


regards
kalaivani


radhe krishna!
