Thanks for the timely reminder in lovely poem form. Wish you a happy belated Onam.
Happy ONAM. The words of wisdom delivered remind me what to do. Such reminders are needed time and again. What if others said before? It does not matter. Repeat them again and again in words of your own.
Wonderful tips on the occasion of Onam. Very nicely structured and worded. I wish I could live them. (10)
Do WE ever need a celebration like ONAM - it's on my calendar from now on! More significantly I'm posting it in my heart. VISIT SOMEONE WHO IS DESOLATE AND LONELY - My best friend of 50 years is confined to a rehab center because of a traumatic brain injury; for 1 1/2 years I visit him once a week, he recognizes me, calls me by name, but there is no further sharing of memories or conversation. I read him every new poem I write, I read him poems he has written in the past - no discernible response. Seeing these desolate lonely visits in the context of ONAM will be an immeasurable help to me. As we say at PoemHunter, thanks for sharing, Valsa!
Thanks, though this festival was introduced to me by this lovely poem, I loved Onam and wish you a happy Onam.
Beautiful! These things are so simple and free to do. I live by these guidelines and wish all humans did. Thank you, Valsa
Happy ONAM to you too. It doesn't cost any money to show kindness to others. Lovely poem Valsa.
Wow .a wonderful message that should definitely be propaganded and made viral.It has great relevance today as it adds to the importance of this day Thanks for the wonderful write.
Happy Onam to you and all Keralites and to all over world.
Try always to sow the seeds of cheer And make everyone happy around To the needy, some little help volunteer And feel for those in sorrow drowned.........Yes, as human, we must sow seeds of cheer that will return us the same. We must feel the sorrow of others. Very nicely and aptly presented. A marvellous poem indeed. ....10
