   Shall I sing a song of my joy to be a slave to Goddess? I am not a poet, 
but let me try..
 
Radiant Goddess Shakti, 
your chains have set me free! 
So radiant to be, 
bound in the chains of love 
by the grace and mercy of 
thy firey kundalini!
 
a slave in Heaven at your feet 
so infinitely sweet! 
For I was king of hell 
when in Free Will I did dwell 
trapped in the illusion 
a mind slave of delusion
 
Gladly I surrender 
Let Thy Will be done! 
Long will I remember 
the joy of being One!
 
Take me for thy slave, 
and never let me go 
my free will I gave 
Your ecstasy to know!
 
    Yes, really quite awful poetry.. :) 
***************************
 
I like it Angelique. It is enthusiastic and energetic and it rhymes! 
Can't beat that. I can see you singing it at a Shakti Rock and Roll show!
 
Keep at it. Don't suppress your talent.
 
The Goddess has many faces. One of them is Sarswati. The Goddess of Wisdom. 
Those who are touched by Her become creative in expression of knowledge and 
universal truths. Trite poems can be part of the package deal! :-).  I have 
written a few myself. And you remember discussions on Gopi Krishna from the 
old days and how Kurt liked Gopi's poetry!
 
By the way, the term "Chela" is not a direct equivalent of the word "Slave." 
Guru-Chela relationship is more like a mentor-mentee relationship except at 
a much deeper and a subtler level.
 
I like the word "Chela." I grew up with the word. It is a special and a 
sweet word in the spiritual paradigm. Of course, it can be used in a 
derogatory way as well, depending on the context.
 
Just call me Mr. Chela Man! :-).
 
Love to all
