Who tends these trees <br />Thick and green on the hill slopes? <br /> <br />Who for do they bear leaf? <br />Who for do they feast? <br /> <br />Who created this waterfall <br />Of unseen origin trickling <br />From between the trees into the Ganga <br /> <br />Ganga mai <br />The eternal mother <br />Creator and destroyer <br /> <br />Ganga mai <br />Who sustains and devours <br />Ma, Ganga <br />I approach you <br />A child, hungry and forlorn <br />Longing to retreat into your womb <br />To be nurtured <br />And to be re-born!<br /><br />indira babbellapati<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/from-the-banks-of-ganga-iii/
