Billy Thekidster Poet Rhyme

Namaste

"Namaste" is a conventional Hindu expression 
upon meeting or parting a person or persons
used generally by the speaker usually while holding 
the palms together vertically in front of the bosom. 
This expression I would have never known
if not for the comments left by Nancy Jones.
