Onam 2019 _ Dubai
Happy Onam to all of you . My onam memories goes on like this . We lived in a house which was located in a village in palakkad . We had a big veranda to make the pookalam ( designs) . I am actually good in climbing walls and trees like monkeys to pluck the flowers from the backyard .Myself , my brother and sister would take a basket and go to the backyard early in the morning and make sure we get the bestest flowers. We have to really go early or else others would have taken all the flowers hence it's a funny task . Some days we get many flowers and some days it's one or two that's all. The flowers which we had in the backyard were chebaruthi , sangu pushpam ,pavizha malli, nandhiyarvattai and there is something called as mathan poo ( pumpkin flower )and pasharu(green algea). We used take the algae from the walls of wells at home . On the day of Onam alone we go sultanpet market with our father to buy flowers .Rest of the days we make pookalam with the flowers we have ...
