LORD VINAYAKA, the god of hurdles

Vinayaka is the son of parvathi

The Cosmic power and the evil destroyer

He lost his head

In his supreme duty to his dear mother

And was put to death by Lord Shiva, his very father

The universe  saw the wrath of his mother

Lord  vinayaka became the first god in the hierarchical order

And became the head of gods

The creator of obstacles

If we workshop him with devotion

We will be saved from our commotion

His big belly is symbolic of the need for a great appetite

The long ears symbolize  the necessity to listen well

We should not always tell and yell

Mental powers are greater than physical features

The hand some and the beautiful are always not the great creatures

The elephant is symbolic of strength and gentleness

Man is symbolic of intellectual greatness

May Lord Ganesha give all of us calmness!

Spiritual alliance and conjected emotion are amoung the most difficult subjects to write about, you my frined make it seem like child's play, well done, great piece.

[Yari Garcia (Older Prof..]

Interesting. I've never read a poem like this before.

[Becky C Strukamp]

A lovely spiritual poem. Excellent write.

[Beautifully Tragic xPoe..]

I love the spiritualness you seem to put in most of your writes. Wonderfully written, great write!

[Christina May Shanaberg]

I love that you remarked about the physical being lesser than the spiritual. Men should be born blind, whom can't see into the spirits of their fellow man. I think when you spoke of "great appetite" that you were speaking of a spiritual appetite and I loved that within your poem. Great write!
