| The Seven Damsels |
 |
| Party time! |
There are these seven damsels,
Tucked away in a remote corner
of South India,
of South India,
But then, there burns a flame
Inside each one of them,
To make footprints in the sands
of time.
of time.
Munira, loaded with fun ideas to
create terrific get-togethers,
create terrific get-togethers,
Bindiya, the fashion diva,
Uma, the dancer with delightful twinkle toes,
Sureka, the writer and journalist,
Lashmi, the resourceful, handling everything over her cell phone,
Shashi, the social worker and Tamil poet
And last but not least, Laila the dreamer!

Like crayons of various hues,
This bunch of assorted damsels
Share a common love for
Laughter , fun and cooking .
Each damsel is an unique individual
Doing her own thing her way
But together times are beautiful times!
These damsels sowed seeds
of friendship,two and a half decades ago,
And now they reap bushels of amity and happiness!
Like fine wine their friendship has gotten sweeter,
Like antique it has become valuable,
Like river it just flows!
Whether they could make footprints in the sands of time one cannot tell,
But they have certainly made footprints in each others' hearts!
That is a lovely poem/prose. You write so well, Babyma!
