Jai Ho! Hail the Victorious!
Jai Ho! to team India,
to Rahman for breaking the sound barrier,
to Gulzar for the live canopy,
blue colured and festooned with brocade,
to Pookutty for getting the sound bytes right,
to Anil and his Jai Maharashtra!
to Danny and his boys,
for transforming the angst ridden 'rags to riches' story,
into a whoopee!we've done it!
to the underdog who has arrived on the red carpet,
to all those who believe,
that the best is brought out,
when we just are we,
the way god meant us to be,
Jai Ho!
to all those who dance,
with gay abandon; to the tune of the piper,
under the living, blue,brocade festooned canopy!
About Me
- Girija Gopalakrishnan
- Dehradun, Uttarakhand, India
- Hi!I am Girija, a teacher by profession,a poet and writer at heart, and an environmentalist by committment.I feel that i owe everything to the environment that was instrumental in making me what i am.there is a deep sense of sadness, regret, anger and helplessness in me because i feel there are a lot of things that happen around us should not be happening, and a lot of persons responsible for setting the wrongs right are not taking their jobs seriously.i would like to invite all those who feel the same to share their views on issues that generate ANGST! Recently I have written a book entitled Meraki:An Unusual Travelogue. It is an account of a little girl's journey through life, her trials and triumphs, her joy and angst, and her take on life as she looks back 55 years later as a grown up person.
