Poems ✍️

The sixteen thousand wives,
‘How they spent their lives
With their husband, Krishna? '
It was the desire of Sage Narada

To Dvaraka, down he came,
Chanting the Lord's name.
He visited their houses
And met all His spouses.

What a beauty it was!
Wonder stuck he was!
More than Heaven it was!
Lord's stay its cause was!

Colourful flowers in gardens,
Lakes full of swans and cranes,
Ponds covered by lotus flowers,
Also tanks filled with lilies.

Surrounded by fruit orchards,
With variety of chirping birds,
And dancing lovely peacocks,
Besides the beautiful parks.

Thousands of marble palaces,
Well planned residential houses,
Lanes, streets and big avenues,
With many picturesque venues.

A Krishna in each palace,
The Lord in every place,
Narada saw Him everywhere,
With every wife found there.

He played chess at one place,
At another performed sacrifice,
Riding on a horse elsewhere,
Playing with girls somewhere.

‘What was humanly impossible,
For the Lord it was possible',
This truth Narada understood,
Before Him when he stood.
