This is a story written by Shivani (aka Gaura Pant). Shivani usually writes serious stories of life but she has written some adorable stories for kids. This is the title story from Shivani's book – “Radhika Sundari”. The story is about a young lioness who gets married to a weaker yet shrewd guy but a lioness is a lioness and that’s what she proves in the end. I have added a little bit of drama in the story ;-)

शिवानी (गौरा पंत) वैसे तो गंभीर कहानियाँ लिखती हैं लेकिन उनकी बाल कहानियाँ भी बहुत मनोरंजक हैं और ये कहानी है शेर की बेटी “राधिका सुंदरी” की, जिसकी शादी एक शातिर और धूर्त गीदड़ से हो जाती है! किंतु शेरनी तो शेरनी ठहरी और आखिर में वो गीदड़ को उसका स्थान दिखा ही देती है। ये इस किताब की शीर्षक कहानी भी है, बस मैंने इसमें थोड़ा सा "ड्रामा" भी मिला दिया है ;-)

This poem is an ode to the Hibiscus flower, that comes in so many colors, has a short life, and even in that transient life, never fails to attract.

रिमझिम बारिश में भीग रहा,

मैं घूम घूम के झूम रहा,

मेरी पंखुड़ियाँ लहराती,

बूँदें भी मुझ पर थम जाती,

मैं श्वेतवर्ण, मैं स्निग्ध स्पर्श,

मैं क्षण भंगुर, मैं हूँ गुड़हल....

A hibiscus flower is a flame kindled by morning, a passionate declaration of life against the indifferent sky. Its petals, like silken banners, unfurl in radiant surrender to the sun's embrace. A splash of crimson against the green canvas of the world, it is a masterpiece painted with sunlight and dew. More than just a flower, it is a symbol, a siren song that lures the eye and captures the heart.
