namastE!

Thanks to Madhavakumar Turumella for posting the complete
original poems of krishna paksham and his own nice poem with
the makuTam "Ela nA hRdayammu prEminchu ninnu". Now I
remember very well that the original poem starts with
"sowrabhamu lEla chimmu pushpa vrajammu?" Can there be a
pAThAntaram for a contemporary poet?

Long ago, that is really long long ago, I wrote a similar poem
and I strained my memory to recall that. Probably any one who
read Krishna Sastry's poem could not resist writing one for
themselves. Seeing Madhava Kumar's poem, I feel like posting mine too.
