THE PRAYER WHEEL-- a sonnet
THE PRAYER WHEEL-- a sonnet


Let this prayer wheel continue its whirl;
Let His praise be chanted every moment.
The flag of His glory you must unfurl;
It must keep up spiritual ferment.

O monk, with ochre robe and shaven head,
A prayer bead garland in the left hand,
Moving the wheel with right hand as you tread,
You enlighten all in a sacred land.

Busy truly you are, His messenger,
His peace and serenity on your face.
To all you verily do deliver,
His true wisdom and His bountiful grace.

O monk, O priest, O swami, I beseech:
To me also kindly his message preach.
