SARASWATI

Image may contain: 1 person

SARASWATI
Sa, re, ga,
accept our invocation,
blessed Goddess,
we begin with your name,
Saraswati!
you are first patron,
to all creation,
as art.
Brahma gives us form and breath,
but learning invests with life,
ah, blessed learning be!
your mystic confluence,
like Prayag,
nurtures the deva, in me.
( footnote: Consort of Brahma,mother of learning ,Saraswati is hailed as the patron of art.
Though popularly depicted in iconography as the wise one who sits on the pure swan,and plays the veena, it is said she is present as a river ,in the mystic confluence of ganga and jamuna at Devaprayag )
