Several sarvalaghu poems have beeen posted recently. Because 
of the so many sarvalaghu words available in our language, it is 
fairly easy to write a poem with all laghuvus unless the meter dictates 
otherwise. However, they don't sound well except on rare occasions 
like the famous"aDigedanani kaDUvaDi janu" poem. Barring some 
exceptions like that, I think there is no great beauty in a sarvalaghu poem 
and that may be why very few were written. There is at least one
sarvalaghu seesam in bhAgavatam. I don't remember. seesam can 
be a real sarvalaghu one as opposed to kandam which should have 
at least two guruvus. Sometime back, Sri Syamala Rao wrote and posted a 
sarvalaghu seesam. Here is another sarvalaghu seesam.

dhanamunu gRhamunu kanakamu valuvalu
	gadiyaga talachunu hRdayamepuDu
aniSamu vedakunu yaSamunu padavulu
	kaligina sirimari kanabaDadadi
valachina maguvayu valachani mugudalu
	salipedareDadanu kalakalamunu
paripari vidhamula parugiDu manasadi
	okatari nilabaDadoka dinamunu

ichaTa nachaTaku parugiDu neDada vaDini
nimusamayinanu kadalaka nilupagaligi
ihamu paramula naDatala nerigi madini
nikhila janakuni manasuna nilupavalayu!
