I still remember our childhood Onam days.

We walked in search of flowers for pookalam,

We used to have yummy Onasadya,

We played many Onam games.

Now, with us miles apart, I wish I could go back to those good old days.

Wishing you a happy Onam.

Poovili Poovili Ponnonamayi.. Wishing you a happy and prosperous Onam 2018.
