The Glowing Ravi

Joe Nidhiry & Raymol Nidhiry

In the grand theater of life, where stars are born and legends crafted,
Stands Ravi, the multitalented, in brilliance never outlasted.
On stages broad and silver screens, his prowess shines so bright,
A maestro in his artistry, casting shadows with his light.

But beyond the roles and scripts he plays, another world he reigns,
A gladiator in the field of sports, where raw strength never wanes.
With football at his feet, he dances through the game,
An athlete true, with passion fierce, forever etched in fame.

Yet deeper still, another facet, a mind of keen design,
With royal Mechanical Engineering, he builds his dreams, where innovation shines.
With blueprints drawn and structures raised, his genius intertwines,
A creator in the world of thought, where intellect aligns.

A proud alumnus of Trissur Engineering College, his roots deeply set,
Where knowledge gained and friendships forged, he never could forget.
From Trissur’s verdant fields to Botswana’s distant lands,
He crafted and expanded a business empire grand.
A visionary in commerce, with ventures globally spread,
Uniting worlds through enterprise, by his ambition led.

Beside him stood a partner, a poetic soul so dear,
Whose words wove tapestries of love, though fame came late, sincere.
Her verses spoke of dreams and hopes, of life’s eternal dance,
A muse whose talent blossomed, when given a second chance.

With faith as his compass, his spirit richly soared,
A passionate leader on the Devasom board.
Guiding temples and traditions, with a heart devout and pure,
He served with dedication, his beliefs strong and sure.

Not merely a man of singular fame, his legacy expands,
To two sons -Ranjith and Sreejith – of equal talent, who carry forth his brands.
In their veins, the same bright fire, of artistry and Engineering might,
In sports and crafts, they too excel, in the broadest of the light.

And as the years cascade and flow, the family tree extends,
With grandchildren who gather ’round, in awe of where it bends.
For they inherit gifts profound, of football talent and of grace,
A lineage of brilliance, where each finds their place.

So here’s to Ravi, the actor, the athlete, the engineer of dreams,
The business magnate, whose influence like a river streams.
To the late romantic , poetic doctor by his side, she will forever glow,
Spiritually close, her love and words forever in him flow.
May his talents shine through generations, as bright as the Sun,
In brilliance never outlasted, not even by his namesake Sun.
