Meera

“Meera…”
The earth swelled and rolled off its pedestal, Satyabhama stumbling in a faint, knocked over by a simple, delicate tulasi leaf. A whirlpool of red swelled, rising from a throbbing core that pulsed too hurriedly to do anything but add to the whirlpool. It rose up, searching for an avenue for release, quickly losing its red, turning colorless and springing forth as a stream of tears.
“Meera…”
This instant, a rose was not merely a rose. Her name was insignificant no longer. Uttered by those honey-laden lips; that whispered voice that could command the heaven and earth and the coldest human – some of that magic could not but enhance her lowly name. Hearing her name, she felt so tiny and unworthy. Her eyes, weighed down by her tears, gravitated towards twin-lotuses, followed shortly by the rest of her being.
“Ma hari charananu ke dasi”

In a flash, the lotus feet disappeared. He was hidden once more.
What happened? She was going to scold. She was going to give him heck for being mean and taking her mommy away. What happened? How could she lose herself like this?
Next time… next time.

Stay tuned.
