A Flower To Auroville Mother-97
AndhiMandarai(Four O'clock,
Mirabilis jalapa)
Known to me earlier as
Yellow, red, purple alone
Not smelly colourful as
Now read multiple known
I used to wonder often
How meaningful a name
You own apt to soften
My child-heart so came
Thank you AndhiMandarai
Trumpet shaped shrublike
Perennial even to this day
You're to me same alike
Thank you AndhiMandarai
Even the seeds pepperlike
Else of you as whole aye
Utile a lot same alike
