The Tandav Rains

he raised his left feet off from the floor till it was knee high;
bending his right knee for a perfect-balanced fly.
his posture was such that his left foot bisected the angled edge;
between his right foot and a face that was turning red in rage.
he moved his hands in a circular motion;
a vigorous striking damru in right with vibrant revolution.
a lightning power concentrated in his left open palm;
he held upright his tandav avtar that knew no calm.

shiva's shahaya tandav manifested in rains this night
what made the creator so angry, so agitated
he had now picked up a violent dance of everyone's fright
turning him into a merciless destructor lord
 
restless turned the earth with his shooting tempor
winds raging fast with the mighty claps of the thunder.
he opened his eyes with tears running down from within
and came the rains tearing the sky like any balloon's pin

with the beat of his feet rumbling in march came the cloud
neelkantha's avtaar was depicted on the skies
the lightning came crashing down loud
as his hand movments turned furiously and faster

the storms swept through the life on the earth
the water gusted from the seas to the town halls
flooded cities, empty roads, broken trees
fire sparking out from live wires of the uprooted polls

every living creature and even the lords
prayed to parvati to calm down the fiery god

for,

only her graceful lasya had all charms and might
to undo all the destruction as she danced in the twilight



- Ketz.

(tandav description inspired from MELUHA)
