To Menaka on her Birthday


Duwa,
you danced
Latino steps, the other day
you chose to be different
to care for kids who need you
made a life of them, for them

Duwa, 
you shone 
a different shine, a twinkle
likes of a distant star
you melt, feel for those in need
stay rock strong when wrong is seen

Duwa,
you made
life full, with little wants 
much to give your own way
you are thrifty, never gave in vain 
sought meaning, sought substance and more

Duwa, 
you loved
with all your heart
a world with him by your side
no easy road you've travelled this far
for what's to come, may blessings of all bring endless joy.


Subha Upan Dinayak Wewa !
With lots of love
Thathi
