Gold Ornament.. Poem by Gangadharan nair Pulingat..

Gold, the glittering gold
Wonderful yellow metal
Ever loved by the people
For ornament making and money.

Gold the base metal for finance
But people in countries
Loves the gold ornaments ever
For marriages it is customary.

The skilled gold workers
The beauty of the gold ornaments
The carvings in gold they made
Different names, symbols a pride.

The great changes in gold ornaments
The big business of jewels
The machine cut ornaments in variety
A new age in modern ornaments.

But the woes of the skilled workers
Always a sad event and concern.
The cottage Industry changed
Fast modern methods came a reality.
