Love
a poem
by Jharna Bhushan Vaid,
Doha, Qatar

 

Love

Give me your Love Baba all your Love.
I know my heart is too small,
for your sweet and simple Love
your pure and pleasing Love
for all your infinite & immeasurable Love
to be fully contained,
In my shrunken heart.

My heart that is only
a heart to call.
A heart that is so full, of
jealousy, self pity and anger
so insecure, fearful and wavering,
so full of things you don't approve off.

Although, Baba I plead you,
to overflow my heart, with all your Love.
I am scared that,
you may not even glance towards me or
bless a single atom of my being.

But still knowing that
I can truly be happy
only with your Love flowing through me.
I naively bring my pitiful heart
to you, to Love.
I try to offer you my heart
'cause that's what you asked for!
and that's all I truly have.

But I am so unsure Baba,
if you'll even consider touching it!
My heart is tainted & bruised.
A heart that sometimes
hurts its own kind,
which is killing itself slowly but surely.

Will you please take it
from me Baba and make it yours?
I have heard the greatest gift,
that I can give you,
for all that you do for me
Is my heart.

I wonder truly if my
humanly heart is goodly enough
to offer to God.

So Baba even though I doubt
my abilities & capabilities,
my decisions & convictions,
my thoughts & words,
my actions & reactions.
I remember a secret that
you told me once
that, what I call "My" is
actually "Yours" my Lord.

I am sure and certain that
although this heart of mine isn't fit,
as an offering to Swami,
still my Loving Baba will take it
'cause I am his own child
and how can he not
hear even a silent whimper in my heart?

My heart will find its place
among Baba's sweet feet.
'Cause my Sathya Baba
is going to take my poor heart
thus making it the richest one around!
He is going to give me
all his Love that fills the universe.

I know from this moment onwards
Baba's Love will shine
in me and around me like the sunlight,
the rays of his Love
will illuminate my heart.
Every atom of my being will be
soaked in his Love.
He will take and transform my heart.
And then with all his Love
I will be the true me.

My heart will know,
no more sadness, misery,
fear or insecurity,
or any feeling that
takes me away from my Baba.

'Cause I know he is there
not looking over my shoulder
but here with me, in my Heart
that is His.
