I was a small girl with average looks
Archie’s and Marvel were among favorites
Tintin entertained me during vacations
As a kid my favorite was Malgudy Days
I used to have fun with Hardy Boys
Enid Blyton was a household nameÂ
Secret seven and Famous Five fame
As a teenager got loads of homework
Still Mills and Boons grabbed my attention
A professional course, full time Fashion designer
Love, marriage and adjusting in a new environment
Took me away from the world of books, for a moment
But how long you can be away from books?
I too was fascinated by the charm and looksÂ
Erich Segal’s ‘Doctors’ inspired me a lot.
‘The class’ was a classic, I went and bought
All said and done all these books together
Cannot match the bedtime stories my father used to tell
I always miss those days, lying in his arms and sleep well……
