Happy Birthday, Varalotti - you are a "legend" in IL!

Dear VR,

B Birthday Wishes to YOU!

B - though stands for "Belated", would beg that you read it as "Best" :)))

May God bless you with more and more good things in your life forever.

PS: I read somewhere that you are stepping into the next half Century. Unbelievable, you really look young in your thoughts, writings and looks(of-course).

Regards,
Malathy

Dear Sridhar,
As usual I have missed out on this one too like I missed my birthday wishes!
My way of wishing you-
If I had a garden,
I would have sent bouquets for your birthday!
If I was a good cook,
I would have sent home made cakes for your birth day!
If I was a talented artist,
I would have presented a painting for your birthday!
If I was a good singer,
I would have mailed a CD in praise of your writings!
But I am just a simple woman!
So accept my best wishes and happiness on your birthday!

May the Goddess closest to your heart shower you with all her love and blessings!

Love and regards
Malathi

Well, ladies, my present state of mind is not very different as I am proudly exhibiting the gift I received one of the ILites today. And here's the precious gift: a wonderful poem.

I don't think it's a difficult job to guess who wrote the poem. The poet has left her signature in the words she has chosen and the subject she has chosen. Anyhow please do make a guess! And post your guesses here in this thread.

Surprise gifts (in the form of special words of appreciation, or if you plan to come to Madurai a cup of Visalam Coffee or Jil Jil Jigardhanda) await you. Open to all. No limit on numbers.


KALEIDOSCOPE

The golden sun ,The blue sky,
So vast above oh so high!

The lovely mountains hazy brown,
Sliding up and sliding down!

The trees so lushy and so green
From where red and orange fruits are seen!

The pristine white clouds move on,
As the sunset shows its saffron!

The grey sands lazing spread on the beach,
The green palms swaying so high cant reach!

The water so transparent yet so blue,
That you’d want to swim in would’ nt you?

The sunflower shows its rich yellow,
Shows the way to dear fellow!

The proud red rose that smells divine,
The colors that vary from white to wine!

All flowers in blooming in gay abandon,
The lovely colours, a dozen and ten!

And then its us from the Kaleidoscope HE sees,
All different colours, yet all a masterpiece!

A wonderful world with his strokes galore,
HE enjoys watching us all, as he makes some more!

The master is HE and a wonder HE’ll be,
As we all form colours in his kaleidoscope to see!

You have stepped into the Next half Century just a few minutes ago!

Hop Skip and Jump into this New Phase !
( but be careful , after all you are not getting younger!
Maybe you should ensure that you have your better half's support!)

HOPE ALL YOUR WISHES COME TRUE !
MAY YOU HAVE A FUN-FILLED YEAR AHEAD!

Dear Sudha,
Thanks a lot for your kind wishes. You are right, I stepped into the second half of the century, with the better half holding my hand. While I'll skip and jump, I will be careful, you know, being an accountant, not only my steps, but my jumps and hops are measured.
Thanks once again for the kind wishes.

love,

Arai sadham aditha ungalukku,
Aayiram aayiram vazhthukkal,
Anbu kalandha vanakkangal

abt the kaleidoscope... is it Devika Menon...?
let me know if i am entitled to the jigirthanda...:)

Dear Sowparnika,
அரை சதம் அடித்த என்னை
அன்புடன் வாழ்த்திய
அந்த பாச நெஞ்சத்திற்கு
பணிவான நன்றி
thanks for the kind wishes, Sowparnika.
Yes, you are right, dear friend. Who else but our "aasthana poet" Devika Menon can pen such a great piece?
Your jigarthanda is waiting for you....
