The Milk Miracle

It was really amazing to see Ganesha sipping milk, Sipping milk from early of the morning And the rumour as an euphoria gripping all, Coming from far and wide, Spreading like some wildfire And engulfing it all That Lord Ganesha sipping milk, An Indian god, As was broadcast, Sipping milk in the temples, Offered by the devotees directly As milk is lessening, Where all that gone instantly, The devotees wondering simply? Crowds gathered on, people talked of The miraculous and astounding taking of the milk, Ganesha with his trunk Drinking milk and blessing on just like Pouring forth from the trunk Or sprinkling shantih water, But later on the crowd started dispersing And the things seemed to be altered And the media explained it otherwise, The agnostic broadcasters and rock specialists. I too went to see, but at that time The duration of the miracle seemed to be finished off And the power was not, As it seemed to be when the spell of the spectre was on, Ganesha accepting and showing the miracle magically, The more I cannot explain, You just imagine about, What was it scientifically As and when the magic was gone, The spell of the moment, The time of the euphoria?
