Dance of the enchantress!!!!

An enchanting evening...

Twinkling toes and painted face

Dramatic eyes and luscious lips

Dancing eyebrows and bejeweled bodies

Soul-stirring music and flying drums

They swayed, they danced

Into our hearts, into our souls

Amidst the temple bells and cacophony!!

It was an enchanting evening indeed at the Mahalingapuram Ayappan temple with Kalamadalam trained artistes performing the Mohini-attom. They were brilliant and kudos to my friend for bringing them over and encouraging this art form and the dancers too.
