Mahadevi Poems
- Don’t despise me
- Him Who Illumines
- How can you be modest
- I do not Say
- I have fallen in love
- I have maya for mother in law
- Lord your Maya
- Love’s Marvellous ways
- O Lord White as Jasmine
- O Lord, Listen to me
- Show Me Your way out
- Sunlight Made Visible
- Would a circling surface vulture
The poetry of Mahadevi is primarily concerned with expressing her all consuming love for her Chennamallikarjuna, an aspect of Shiva. Her poetry encapsulates the feelings of both the longing of separation, and the ecstasy of reunion. Frequently Mahadevi also alludes to the beauty of her Lord, White as Jasmine.
