POETRY: May He Protect You

My great friend, the author, Susanna Moore [My Old Sweetheart, In the Cut, One Last Look are three of her books] - one of her favourite poems reminiscent of the great underlying spirituality of the Indian subcontinent.

Dedicated to John Stefanidis

Krishna went out to play

Mother and he ate dirt

Is that true Krishna

No

who said it

Your brother Balarama

Not true

Look at my face

Open your mouth

he opened it and she stood speechless

inside was the universe

 may he protect you
