A snake hooded flower - Nagalinga flower

Nature has its ways of bringing the Lord to us. Simple forms that bloom into flowers and seem to depict one of the most sacred forms known to us. The "Nagalingapoo" or Naga Linga flower is one such flower that brings the beauty of the Lord right before us.
They say the beauty of the Lord lies within a lotus, a thousand petaled lotus. Blooming out, holding the Linga within itself, sheltered deep inside housed by the flower that seems to cover it like a serpent, a multi hooded serpent.
Glowing with beauty
a flower speaks out
in the middle of the forest
God's own creation
Small wonders blooming around
singing away in the sunlight
a creation so unique
passes away unnoticed
A gigantic tree
with deeper roots
holding out delicate flowers
for the world to see
Behold this beauty
shining pink
within a pond of fragrance
filling the air
Joyous birds chirp
amidst her branches
holding out in full bloom
telling the world
The Lord appears
in various forms
some so simple
just don't look beyond
The Lord resides
in the hearts of all
displaying His beauty
through a simple flower!
The serpent king guards
in graceful curve
the very Lord Himself
Enclosed in a universal whole
Five petals hold
Love for the Lord
potent seeds with divine sound
Forever singing His praise.
