Alas! Sridevi, the Beauty Queen
of Bollywood is no more,
She was a peerless Classical as
well as Western dancer!
She was for millions, an
inexhaustible entertainment store ,
She will surely remain a
matchless Bollywood actress forever!
Yes, she was bequeathed with a
full Moon's cute and comely look,
She was endowed with an
inimitable elegance of a sprightly brook!
She was blessed with a Cuckoo's
sweet, soothing and spell-binding voice,
Oh! She was, among her
enviable co-heroines, the viewers' first Choice !
She was, without a dram of
doubt, a bewitching Beauty Queen,
Who, with her exceptional
acting prowess did a great many hearts win!
Ah! Resonates now,as a Big Bang,
her unexpected and untimely heart-attack,
In the thunderstruck and numbed
film fraternity from California to Cuttack!
It's certain that no second Sridevi
will step again on India's Big Silver Screen,
Her immaculate versatility,
like beacon light, will definitely continue to shine!
Now, all her forlorned fans speak
in a chorus ''We will miss You and your Feats!
May your departed Soul, in a Heavenly
Abode, rest blissfully forever in Peace !
