Saluting and invoking Sri Ganesh

And at a slow pace You ride your devoted mount Across the nearby planes, Aware of the disastrous echo Of the universal Disorder In Matter, And attentive, Through the reverberated din, To the scattered notes Of trust and faith And integrity – And sometimes you pause Where the offering Is strong enough To be gathered And channeled And to evoke the Blessings By which you become Again The auspicious guide, The Brother who leads To the true Riches – In these moments the world Is aligned And the Mother Smiles… (01-06-11) Sri Ganesh, You are Her Knight of Joy And you are Her Banner – You are the Sign Of Her Inexhaustible Wealth Which must be regained And retrieved From the thieves that have Misused the force Of Her Will – And you soldier on, * 7-31
