" Adorable is an idea - As long as it spreads light, but- If it darkens and pours misery Throw it out to make space for the new! " Given below are extracts from a few poems by Edasseri Govindan Nair, translated by Dr. M. Leelavathi. I too had a mother When a King bought me, a slave, She was given a price, a few coins She tied them to my apron-strings And left bare-handed I bought a blanket, later To protect her from cold Alas! When I came with the gift at last She had gone for eternal rest Under the cover of a thick earthen blanket. [A few lines from the poem "The Shepherd Of King Bimbisaran" translated by Dr. M. Leelavathi.] No debt bothers me now No balance left for Tomorrow's shopping either The thief will sneer at me More so will do the rich I wish both see me the same way Till I dissolve into the elements.
