An Ode to the Classy Lashy:

(Inspired by the poem,"The Solitary Reaper" by William Wordsworth.)

The Original:

The Solitary Reaper.

Behold her, single in the field,

Yon solitary Highland Lass

Reaping and Singing by herself;

Stop here or gently pass!

Alone she cuts and binds the grain

And sings a melancholy strain

O! listen! for the vale profound

Is overflowing with the sound!

* * * * *

Will no one tell me what she sings?-

Perhaps the plaintive numbers flow

For old ,unhappy far off things

And battles long ago.

Or is it some more humble lay

Familiar matter today?

Some natural sorrow, loss or pain,

That has been and may be again?

* * * * *

My Version:

Behold her, once again has come back to write

Our slashy Lashy with all her might

Writing and being happy herself;

Read now and also enjoy yourself!

Alone she does research and writes non stop

With her Lexicon and Laptop

O! Watch, for the forum overflows

With the members' posts of kudos!

Can any one miss the story that she writes?

Perhaps the prologue'd have attracted you

To the century-old history of the Kings and Knights,

And the customs of the Moghuls and Rajputs true blue.

Or is it the suspense that underlies in it

Kindles the expectation of you readers to await

Some beautiful romance and well written dialogue

Which'll take us along with her till the epilogue!

Saraswathi Periamma.

Thank you dear Manu ( Hope I get your name correctly),

I also had this poem in my text when I was in school, but only the first stanza.. This is a very long one and I have taken the 2 stanzas which will be easy for me to imagine.

Saraswathi Aunty.
