Yesterday, very carefully she created me
She was elated, yet quite focussed
Her trained fingers drew lines
and danced around dots
and she waved her fingers
to create waves at the edges
She decorated me as she decorates herself
simply, yet beautifully
She filled me with colour
she filled me with charm
and finally she filled me with life
She was very pleased and so was her God
But today
sadly, yet purposefully
she clears me with her own hands
and I become a heap of dust
No trace of the magnificent symmetry
Alas, I am a one day wonder
Yes, already, she has started
to create another one-day wonder

mOhanaji's first post - Yay! :)
This is going to be both enriching and entertaining!!
What an apt title!
mOhanaji, En manasil iruppadhai neenga azhagana vaarthaigalil solli vittenga.... " One day wonder" ... short lived things are always wonders!
