Krishna goes to meet Duryodhana

Krishna   goes to meet Duryodhana

Lord Krishna   was one day  busy ,

Dressing  up nattily and was often,

Seeing the mirror, applying scents ,

And  was  dressed in the best  dress that  he had

His consort  Rukhmani   watched   all this ,

And asked him “Why  Lord all this,

Are   you going   to see a  new girl?”

Krishna  laughed  and said “Only Duryodhana”

Rukhmani was wonderstuck   and asked ,

“But why lord?”  and Lord  Krishna  replied,

“He is a peculiar  person and  he   sees  only  my outside ,

And He does not bother  to see What is in my mind?”

Rukhmani  then said “Oh”  but  she said,

“Oh Lord, he  is younger  to you   and  ,

Not as  great as you, can you not call him,

Possibly   you have   reason  for that also?”

Lord Krishna said  , “Definitely darling ,

Always    bright light   travels to meet  ,

Darkness   so  that darkness  becomes light,

But darkness  some how never  goes to meet light.”
