Bridal Song .

Priya Tomar

O sisters , adorn the bride 

Her groom comes with all pride

From groves bring perfumes

All softness from new blooms

For her face blush of dawn 

Hue. for eyes blue from ocean .

 

O sisters , sing rhymes sweet

Her groom comes , all streets greet

Sing her beauty , sing her grace

And the smile that adorns her face

Songs of  hope , songs of  golden dreams

musings of  Gauri , sing sacred hymns

 

O sisters , step beside the  bride

Her groom comes like king on ride 

Crimson threads on her flesh 

Whisper songs of amorous secrets

From sky stars bestow bless

May always chime your  anklets .

        Priya, this carries such a beautiful, celebratory energy…like a moment held in song and movement. That detail of the anklets chiming stayed with me…so delicate and alive. It feels like a shared joy being lifted together. This lands as warm, graceful, and full of life. Beautifully written, my dear friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

          It is most interesting that in Christianity the Christ refers to himself as the groom and I wonder how many other religions use this metaphor. A most metaphorical poem so well written and celebratory as well as sacred. A fave
