A Kerala Festival That Comes. Poem by Gangadharan nair Pulingat..

The sun heat goes in high
The temperature so unbearable
The nights are sleepless
The fans that brings the heatwave
The Trees were a relief in summer
Where it provided the air some coolness
But, all cut and removed
When the wood merchant offered a sum
A little high, than the usual offers
In a dawn through the window it hears
The song of the Bird welcoming the 'VISHU'
The celebration of change of climate
And possible rains a little within days
Vishu a Kerala celebration we likes
Welcoming the season ready to rain
The good earth that gives the livelihood
And here it welcomes the rain
The Honey bell sings a good song
Welcomes you the rain, come here early
Vishu Kani we offers in devotion
Jackfruit, coconut, mangoes, and flowers
That exhibit in the prayer room
The Oil lamps solemnly kept in prayer room
And fully lit in early dawn of vishu
Pretty day Vishu always in Kerala
When the elder ones gives coins to little ones
And we safely keeps it as a treasure
A reminding event life long we keeps.
