Chapter 1 - THE BANGLE SELLERS

Bangle sellers are we who bear

Our shining loads to the temple fair

Who will buy these delicate bright

Rainbow tinted circles of the light

Lustrous tokens of radiant lives

For happy daughter's and happy wives

Some are meet for a maiden,s writs

Silver and blue as the mountain mist

Some are flushed like the buds that dream

On the tranquil brow of a woodland stream

Some are aglow with the bloom that cleaves

To the limpid glory of new born leaves

Some are like fields of sunlit corn

Meet for a bride on her bridal morn

Some like the flame of her heart's desire

Tinkling luminous, tender, and clear

Like her bridal laughter and bridal tear

Some are purple and gold flecked grey

For she who has journeyed through life midway

Whose hands have cherished whose love has blest

And cradled Fair sons on her faithful breast

And serves her household in fruitful pride

And worship the gods at her husband's sids
