Janet Naysmith (Mrs.)

As a lonely child bathes in the shadows of springtime, so do I bathe in the warmth of you love enshrouding me softly like the soft touch of a lotus petal.

On the shore of the material world I am rendered vulnerable, and I leave footprints that show traversing of a searching soul lost in the quagmire of mind weeds. Srila Prabhupada, you are so merciful upon such an unworthy soul; you are the only person who has ever truly loved me, and I am so encompassed by your smile, by your beautiful eyes, by your voice, the golden voice of the kingdom.

How could anyone leave your service ever? Guru Maharaja, please forgive my verbal fumblings, for I am so indebted to Your divine lotus feet that I can never explain my gratitude to You. So I crave to take shelter of Your lotus feet and cal Your name in worship.

Your eternal servant,

Janet Naysmith (Mrs.)
