Poetry

Our Kerala tour moved like a pendulum
For a while only at Ernakulam.
Hotel Sunniti suites on highway forty seven
Though gave a feeling that we were in haven.

Life was paralyzed on Feb 20 and twenty one
By the Bharat Bandh called by leftists n CPM.
Lot of fun n frolic we had in the sojourn
Enjoy in the Vihar was the aim of every one.

Torrid atmosphere prevailing at Ernakulam
Was contained fabulously by air conditioners.
Unfulfilled wish to visit unique Kochi harbour
Was mellowed by scenic beauty at beach Kovalam.

Joy n sorrow are perhaps the destinations
Touched frequently by our mind's Pendulum.

-Ratnakar D Mandlik
