STARTLED REVELATIONS
My senses seem to be returning back
The smell of food entices me and I relish it
I seem to be growing bigger by the day and longing for his call each evening
My face they say is glowing and clear Sam predicts I have a girl
My Rakshashan will have a half smile when he hears the prediction made by all
I don't fret much about my work, I didn't go running to the hospital at odd hours
I am sedate and sated I see motherhood is indeed blissful
I din't react at Appa's taunts , I chose to let it go by
He must have senses the meanness in the query, he was very warm and caring then on
Shravu was ready to pounce and dance, he ransacked my purse for goodies
Appa was bent keeping him at arms length and Baldie was mine to cuddle and chew on
Shravu and I went to our weird quizzing mode till the news I was pregnant startled him
He wondered if his Uncle R was aware, the question made Appa laugh out
Amma's love my Dude brought her quick to his defense and Appa was silenced at once
Amma worried what I ate and became thoughtful to hear my list
The Kanjak Pooja plans alarmed her at once, I was nor prepared to relent
The next time around, my little one would be around the center of all celebration
I longed to lose myself in street shopping, the colors and smells and noise thrills me
My Rakshashan would impose order 144 and send a team of commandos to guard if he could
I can be reckless and weird as I choose to be with none to rein me in this minute.
Amma seem pre occupied, Shravan amazed, Baldie thrilled and uncomfortable
Appa in his startled form is the best , relieved he seems i've come without an escort accompanying me.
