Designs of dots, single and multi lines, Encircling loops and inviting colours Well done by bare fingers Threading out flour of rice or quartz! Down on the cleanly cow-dunged floor An auspicious embellishment beside the door. An aesthetically geometrical art so popular. Dots foretelling the pleasing figure Of a variety to decorate a border Or to illustrate divine lords super Or sensibly any paraphernalia in favour.
