The Mahabali myth.

Vamana did not need a head to trample;
Rather he tried to fix a precept as sample.
Submission of self before service,stays tall.
Surrender to God's will,never frames a fall.
Mahabali's surrender was a mighty mark
To draw from him,the Lord's divine spark.
This day Mahabali is said to visit our homes
Where our flair for drawing flowers,roams.
Each drawing sets the pursuit of the mind,
Through delicate lines to wind and rewind.
Each drawing drives energy to see the divine,
By dynamic shifting  of the self,to the shrine.
Onam is a celebration of space with grace,
By rule of love,radiating in each one's face.
