INVOCATION

--Thou art O Lord of lords! formless, nameless and abodeless
By giving forms and names installed you in temples peerless
forgive my sin of making Nil into full" thus spoke Sankara once.
The shrines thus emerged, brought him interplanetary eminence

pious as I'm, visited them all to drink in Thy Sobha with eyes
find was agog on hearing thy myriad sports from the priests wise
Regaining senses. I essayed anon to share that delight infinite
To follow men lost in mundane activities for salvation definite

But found my grasp meagre and power of narration ineffective
Can't visualize an iota of Thy Viswarupa in diction effective
Hence my ford Balaji!! fill in that void of my modest ambition
With compassion for due inspiration and happy consummation
