1988-1229 Poem ‘Weddings’ by Karen DeNitto, Ganapatipule, India from 1989-0200 The Divine Cool Breeze (U.S.A.), Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 15

A great prayer lifts up
in the Indian night
as hearts and souls are wed
at the feet
of our Holy Mother.

A great prayer lifts up
on the shores of red earth
of Lord Ganesha's home:
we pledge
a deeper life,
released,
from ordinary ways.

We encircle the fire of purity
as the deities dance
to honor our Mother
in the Indian night,
a dance divine, invisible
yet felt as the power sublime.
