Poem for Apr 26



Radha-Govinda


Radha-Govinda reciprocate with me.
Radha-Govinda, in a couple of days
Syama dasi is going to clean
You and change Your
dress. I am completely satisfied
gazing at You in Your
olive green outfit with
golden threadings, and it is
perhaps the most excellent
of all Your outfits. Govinda’s lotus
feet are completely
exposed, and He holds
a long, golden flute.
Radharani has a beautiful,
expansive green skirt, and
Her right hand is extended
to Him. They are as perfect
now as They were this morning,
but variety is the spice of life.
I, and all the residents of
Viraha Bhavan, will be glad to
see the change of dress.
It may not be as rare as
the present one, but it will
be new and a surprise,
and we welcome it.
I am grateful Radha-Govinda
reside with me in Viraha Bhavan.
