Accents, Sonatas and a limerick

Chambagali. Let me assure you that this is just the mallu spelling of Champakali, a popular north Indian sweet dish. In Kerala, most people say ba for pa and vice versa. So Gobi manchurian is Gopi Manchurian. Here in Kerala they work around this limitation by spelling b for p and p for b, ingenious people that they are. Y even the IIMK visiting card printer wanted to change my name to Branay:). I assured him that people at home wouldnt take to the lingerious modification of my name. But seriously the abble temble myth is true. However linguistic influences are not restricted to malls alone. One of my preetier gujju friends was a great fan of rape (rap) music :). A large part of dip was spent in raggin her to death abt her accent. She's just got engaged now and thats one wedding I just have to attend.
Speaking of relationships, aspersions are being cast on my integrity by my fellow SDP members regarding a certain lady (a seminar delegate) whose father owns a very expensive car and about my interest in her or rather her car. Well theyre just plain jealous that she didnt talk to them. HEE HEE. However I do believe being an MBA I must have some broad based framework of the kind of lady Id like to be with and more importantly, the kind of lady whod like to be with me :). I thought Id use Porters diamond model, but thats for entire countries (now dat'd be too much;)), maybe a SWOT analysis, or like someone at Synapse 2K5 had said, Maslows theory of hierarchial needs. Shudve seen Balki's face then. HEE HEE.
While I was pondering over this during an exceptionally boring session, I decided some divine intervention was needed and came up wit this rhyme, limerick watever. Guess it wouldnt stand up to Swapna's high standards of poetry :D. But Its wat I scribbled so njoii:)

Angel in the sky,
Wont u tell me why?
This world of mine,
is such a mystery.

Why's the sun so big?
Why's the moon so bright?
Why's the night so dark?
The day full of light.

Angel in the sky,
Wont u tell me why?
Love is such a part,
of my life on this earth.

Is love as beautiful,
as you make it seem.
or is just a thought,
just another dream.

Angel in the sky,
Wont you tell me why?
elusive is the love,
of the lady I seek.

Will I meet her?
Do I know her now?
Where would be?
the one that I love.

Angel in the sky,
take these dreams of mine,
make it into,
a piece of reality.

demystify part of,
this mystery.
Show me what ?
life has chosen for me.


Show me what life has chosen for me....



Luv,
P.R.

p.s.: its set to a tune in my head and Id like to keep it there:). Maybe Id give it to my cousin to play (poor guy). BTW if u didnt like it, dats fine. If you did thank u 'I yaim to bleaze' :)).
