Adopted Merriment Poem by Indira Renganathan

Adopted Merriment

Rating: 5.0


An old widower feared of life childless
Adopted an adult twenty four, age mindless
Play-God of Tholvillimangalam was the witness
Expected invitees we a chit parentless
But a thrilling process of a grown up happiness
Baptism to upanayanam, rituals chained flawless
A heck of feast went on faultless
Catchy above all, temple elephant awesome boundless
When saluted thrice the Lord, beauty matchless
Thanking we stood wordless
