A sojourn gives such-much experiences
First lesson from the little wee's prattles
Beating-biting grand-daughter teaches
'Don't go near ants, you'll get bites
A conflict between Dhanam and daughter
A mass of compression in my breath
Mounded vessels, cluttered floor, bundled clothes..
Seemingly welcome this new maid
A visit to the nearby temple
A contrast feeling on native, city purohits
Of cost and service city wins
To feel in heart good about city God
An outing with home for home
Shopping around huge malls, large sales
Nearing Diwali firing crackers
No to diabetic dieting
A big bag of Nellai-Halwa with 1/2 Kg packs
Uncles and aunts each sweetened
Sweetened in return doused in hot, cold beverages
Cheerful cold and coughs and hawks tearful
A sudden visit to Cancer Institute
On a sudden shocking report
Caring cousin gheraoed by carcinogens
Such-much experiences a sojourn gives
