Dr. Upma A. Sharma Poet Limerick

Charming Beauty

Lean beauty a charming craze,
           Can size zero set ablaze ?
             Closer beat the heat,
             Soulful not just meat,
      More than handful goes a waste!

Ravindra K Kapoor August 21, 2014 at 6:31 AM What a witty and amusing write dear friend. Those who cry for lean beauty would rethink on their decision and may be they prefer to put on some weight after going through your brilliant lines 'On Charming Beauty'. A very well deserving win. Congrats on your grand win Dr. Upma. Love and best wishes always...Ravindra K Kapoor
