A Fistful Of Stars: Swan-peacock Song
"I did not see I did not know
Of such grace and beauty...'' writes Hariharan Balakrishnan in this sensuous poem.
The swan has grace
Peacock beauty
White is peace
Blue is naughty
I did not see I did not know
Of such grace and beauty as I see
In gentle movement, silent swim
A turn of neck, a swing of hip
As I see this very now
In the soul of Sri Radha
I did not understand the beauty
Of playful friend and trusty mate
Who played those tunes of rhapsody
On that little bamboo flute
I did not know of indigo-blue
As I see in Sri Krishna
