Poem:
GIVE  UP  YOUR  ANXIETY

 Your anxiety, so childish, I say,
About my  affection to you,
Is  baseless,dear  baby.
You  being my  disciple the best,
 And your reverence unstained
 Yet I   can't  express it openly
Before yours and mine
Class of  people.
  A  few  reasons  serious.  Support my argument wise

Suppose, I am a  gardener,
He does love all the flowers
In his garden , doesn't he ?
Yet  his  eyes and heart may 
Linger long on the red rose,
That has  aligned   though on The Thorny plant.
While  he 's  been watering  Every plants,
His heart rests calmly inside,
But as he nears the rose,
 It   begins to leap up .
Warming   his physic and psyche  gently,
He pauses by it for longer.

My affection  resembles   to
 An  ewe   to her  own lamb
Among  the flock
Often looking curiously at it slone,
While some with it   are
About to wander. away.

It  is  like the mother hen
Whose heart bubbles at  the Sight of  her chicks,
Among ducklings  that too  Were hatched  'under
Days ' warmth of her  breast..

My  love to you is   true
Definitely, I  feel     Universal love
Yet, you are  lucky a lot,
Being the one who  has  the place  at
The inner  most center  of my heart.
So let not anxiety  eat upon you,
Until you  turn  a  living  spectrum in woe.
I  assert  my affection is
Not transient like  lightning.
But permanent like the  sun.
(C)Ambikadevi.M.A
POETIC VIEWS:
The poem delves into a deep spiritual connection between the poet and her own  disciple. The love expressed is not merely human affection but a divine bond, rooted in spiritual understanding and shared experiences. The poet acknowledges the potential for misunderstanding, especially within a societal context that might not fully grasp the nature of their bond. The fear of misinterpretation leads to a sense of constraint and longing for open expression.
The poem employs powerful metaphors to convey the depth of the poet's love. The gardener's affection for the red rose, the ewe's for her lamb, and the hen's for her chicks symbolize the unique and cherished nature of the disciple-guru relationship. The red rose, the lamb, and the chicks are potent symbols of beauty, vulnerability, and divine grace. The best element of this poem is the poet’s vivid imagery, such as the gardener tending to his flowers and the mother hen nurturing her young, creates a strong emotional impact. The poet attributes human qualities to inanimate objects, such as the rose and the sun, to enhance the emotional depth of the poem.

The poem is a touching expression of love, devotion, and the complexities of human relationships, especially those rooted in spiritual practice. It explores the delicate balance between public perception and private sentiment, and the enduring nature of true love. The use of metaphors and imagery adds depth and richness to the poem, making it a powerful and moving piece of literature.- WILLIAMSJI MAVELI
