Short Intro: I wanted to write something happy and joyful for a change. So I got a prompt where it told me to write Radharani stealing mangoes and Krishna finding it. Here, I address Radhika as Vilasini(the playful one) and Krishna as Karuna Sindhu(ocean of mercy). I hope you all enjoy reading this. Forgive me if I have committed any offence. May Radhika and Krishna be pleased with this poem. (Also a small doubt: Will it be better if I post poems on my blog section as forum is mostly for Qna?)
Golden Pulp and Sticky Smiles
Quiet ghungroos on wooden floor,
ripe mangoes in a humble basket
And then-
Gone!
Whisked away
By Vilasini
-the golden girl
with divine mischief!
Red lotus palm
in the empty basket
-no sweet fruit
Quiet mischief in the air
Shaking head and small sigh
-like He could do this all day
Tiptoe in the groves
-his playground
searching high and low
for the playful theif
There!
The three musketeers
relishing His sweet
underserving heaven
And then...
Boo!
Startled gasps,
mangoes hidden
but not the savouring
-sticky guilt gave way
A hush in the forest
-not a sound in the quiet
But...
Another golden pulp
from Karuna Sindhu
-His eyes crinkling
A shared laughter
Among all present
Another glorious day in Vrindavan!

Haha! The stories of how gopis and devotees try to please krishna in many ways is very pleasing to hear. May we also get their blessings to always think and speak of krishna and be attached to Him!
The center being Krishna ... their jealousy is not the same as humans. We can become jealous at some point if we don't have something and others pocessing it but the jealousy exhibitted by gopis and satyabhama is in extreme love for Krishna and their center is always how best to serve Krishna. .. I didn't mean that you are jealous of flute or gopis, but i got reminded of the incident where gopis's once complained to Lord that He always keeps flute by His waist... He always uses it by touching it .. ..their love is immense that they even felt the flute to their rival. The gopis' said oh flute how cruel you are you play as per lord's tunes and enjoy closely stuck to His lips and make us get bad name in the soeciety whenever you touch the lips of Sri Krishna... 🥲 lol how romantic the way they taunt yet want still the venu always be struck to lips of Lord... and it is because of the venu madhuri of Lord the gopis' get the signal so they love the flute as their co -wife and sing its glories too hehehe while taunting it.
