4Dedicated to
my Father Sri VR Subramani and My Mother Smt. S Amirtham
Heart chained with flora
Blossoms with emotions
Coloured with joys
Decorated with softness
Fragrance of merciness
Emptied with jealousness
Curbs danger like drosera
From the child era
Dawn of my breathe
Glimpse of my life
Measuring rod of my hard work
Queen of my success
Fond of me with
Classic sign of love,
my MOTHER'S HEART
