Lotus feet

Posted on by Reena Saxena

I am aware of the horrors of lotus feet due to feet binding in China. However, Indian culture has compared the feet of God to lotus, perhaps, due to its cleansing properties.

Devotion (Bhakti Rasa) is not really my stronghold, but this week’s prompt led me to try my hand at it.

Here’s the haiku


 cleansing rituals sweep
 cobwebs from thoughts- close under
 lotus feet of God
