In the quest of immortality,
A palace was built,
To live after death.
It started when the emperor,
Was just in his teens
Oh dear!
Twenty square miles it was,
Where the tomb was built,
It was no less than the palace,...
Glued I was in a romantic bliss,
Didn't even blink to avoid a miss.
Down came with a thud!
The lizard that boiled my blood,
On my cheek, and landed a kiss!!
Stuck between heaven and hell,
She had choices, but very less.
The job she had embraced,
Knowing the challenges well.
Spy, she was called by her mother,
Citizen, by the far off nation.
Flew away she did from her own,
Severing...
Sun shining down the horizon,
Fun is intended during the day,
None can stop the joyous banter
Run do they, in merriment and gay.
Friends, as they come together,
Transcends happiness all around,
Sends vibes so positive and
Intends to bring...
A pinch of care,
Heaps of love,
Dozens of thoughts and
A bowl full of smiles.
That's the recipe
Of happiness.
The more you add,
The tastier life would be.
Enjoy the dish of happiness
And smile your way through life.
Raw Mango Pickle with Curd Rice
The tangy, sliced raw mangoes,
Mixed with salt, hing and
Chilli powder, drenched with a
Liberal share of
Gingelly oil, paired
with curd rice
Wow!!
Puttu Kadala
Damp rice flour and coconut
Alternately placed
In tall, slender, cylinder,
Looks beautiful...
Pleasing smell of the
Earth, so naked and naïve.
Tantalizing the olfactory nerves,
Reassuring the onset of the rain.
Intoxicating the poet who's
Clouded with thoughts,
Hallucinating all the nature lovers,
Oh! Indeed a bliss it is and
Rightly called the Petrichor.
