Sunday Poem By Anjali De Nandi, Mom

February

In my village, There was a very big tank. There on the water Floated so many white lotuses. And on it's bank, There was many coconut trees. Then my age - It was eleven years. Under too bright sun rays, We all dears, Took bath on it's water. That was a Vasant Panchmi day. We all students picked up 116 lotuses. Offered to the lotus-feet, Who was Goddess of wisdom-knowledge. And prayed, "Hey, Hey, Hey! You holy MOM! In my brain, kindly, you take seat!"
