Of all the names, I've ever heard
Of all the names, I've ever uttered
Your name, my Lord, is a sugar to my soul
It makes me feel complete and whole
Everytime I utter your name
My turbulent mind becomes tame
Heals me off my wounds and pain
How do I express the joy I gain?
Like a chocolate that melts on the tongue
My heart does melt when your name is sung
Like the sweetness that spreads from the sweet
My hearts pumps bliss at every beat
Shiva Himself cherishes it
Mighty Hanuman lives by it
Mystic Kabir was drunk with it
Gandhi Mahathma relished it
Wonderful devotees you've always had
Delight to the good, terror to the bad
On goodness' head you are the crown
Your devotees are gems that you adorn
I too want to be one of them
On your jewels, a tiny gem
I always want to chant your name
Forgetting health, wealth, money and fame
The tastiest of all is your name
The mightiest of all is your name
The beautiest of all is your name
Cherishable of all is your name
The day I found joy in chanting it
I realised what is contentment
There is nothing else that makes me yearn
There is nothing more I want to learn
I always want to chant your name
And live a life that spreads your fame
Take from me anything you want
And make me more eager to chant
I will always chant your name with joy
Like I called my mother as a boy
For your name, my lord, is a sugar to my soul
It makes me feel complete and whole.

HI Venus, Thank you very much. You read it so soon :)
I have no words to express my happiness when I read your poem.It triggered in me the desire to utter continuously the taraka nama.It is beautifully written.
Ah! Wonderful...yes the joy cannot be expressed only felt and reflected ..

Hi friends, Thanks for your interest in my blog. I will post soon. :)
Hi, how are you? No update?
#Venus,
Thanks for asking. I have updated. :)
:)New posting?
Dear Ramesh,
I felt a feeling of bliss when i went thro' your poem "Sugar to the Soul"just a little while ago.I only wish to add to conclude-----
"Call Him Rama, Call Him Jesus
Call Him what you like
Justice is what He gives
To One And All alike."
Well written Keep it up.
Incidentally I was out of touch with your writings since last two months or so due to other preoccupations.Now that I have come back to normal you can expect more regular comments from me from now on. Baiyu
"Call Him Rama, Call Him Jesus
Call Him what you like
Justice is what He gives
To One And All alike."
Very beautiful lines....
I am sure this will be the feather on that poems cap...
Thanks for your contribution sir.
This is lovely & I have no words to express my feeling.
I liked the following a lot:
''I too want to be one of them
On your jewels, a tiny gem
I always want to chant your name
Forgetting health, wealth, money and fame''
I remembered Hanuman once I read this.Because I always pray him to accept me as either his footwear or toe ring.I wanna be like that with him & forget everything.
Dear Niru,
Thanks for ur comment. I know how u would have felt while praying like that. Thanks for sharing that prayer here.
