Okra – The Elegant Dancer
The dancing okra
Serene, in sync
The green twirls around
At home with steps
The lady sways the crowd
Each dainty turn
The dancer perfects
The swirls get easier
The higher the applause
For the Manipuri stunner
The okra performs
A medley of songs
With a calm melancholy
Her audience in a trance
Poem and Drawing by S. Rasa Rasika
