Tell me what should I ask of you

What shall I ask of you
 Steadfastness of mountains
 Softness of flowers
 An earth bedecked with flowers and bees
 Or the bottom of the empty sky
 Everything that I want to ask is finite
 Shall I ask for a beautiful printed image
 Or a gem from the ocean
 Or the gentle smile of a lotus
 Or the divine sward of lord Shiva
 Or a deep blue radiance for my body
 Or the limitless universe
 Or the ocean’s horizon
 I just cannot think what to ask you
 You tell me what should I ask of you
 Should I ask for the exotic love of the evening sky
 Or the laughter of my beloved
 Or pleasure from the erotic lover
 Or rhythm from the divine lover
 I am still in a dilemma what to ask
 Tell me now what shall I ask you?
 My body tells me to ask for this
 My mind tells me to ask for that
 The heart tells me to ask only for this
 While wisdom tells me to ask only for that
 Shall I ask for this or that
Everything is impermanent, what shall I ask for?
 The soul in me whispers to ask for every thing
 To ask for what is truth and nothing else
 So why shouldn't I ask just for you?
 For you to be with me every moment
 So that I may ask you for whatever I want
 Whenever I want.

 OM!
