Wherever you are, Sri Ganesh,
Wherever you go and appear,
A traveling King
Or a pilgrim Bard,
The ever joyful Form
Of Her Call to Grow,
You are ready, constantly,
To hold a feast –
Wherever you go you carry
Within you
The tools and the wealth
To lay the luminous feast
Of welcome –
Wherever one seeks
Your coming,
You may in an instant
Turn the most inauspicious grounds
Into
A field of blessings,
If only
One is willing
To trust and truly
Give…

Sri Ganesh,
You lean into the world,
You appear with the treasures
That are born of the Mother,
And each of your
Measured steps
As you move in Her creation
Sets joyous fire
In front
And all around –
Sri Ganesh, your footfalls
Are molten gold,
