Hi Rama Prasad,

It is so nostalgic and wonderful narration, I read word by word what all you wrote. I am sure that we all loved your writings.  We, all our classmates missed you and your talents all these years. When you meet all of us in Jan 2019, you will meet two more poets and great writers among us, Dr Achyuta Rama Rao of UK and Prayaga Murali Mohana Krishna of many countries, settled in Visakhapatnam.  We should see more of you.

With Best Wishes,

Dear All our Friends,
Kindly see the Paper cutting on the day of retirement  of 

Our Classmate,  Dr Sreeramulu Kankipati, Forensic Pathologist, who worked for 

the government of Barbados for more than 2 decades. 

Now, he settled down in California, USA.  Due to many health problems, he is not sure whether he can make the trip

to Vyzag in Jan 2019.  I am boosting his morale and immunity to withstand the journey to India. We did not know about him

and his address, hence, he could not take part in any one of our re-unions until now.

We pray the Almighty to give him adequate strength to him such that, he can come to Vyzag with full support from his devoted wife.

Prof NG Rao

984-910-3439 and 767-397-2459

PS: Some of our friends have been asking me how to send the subscription for our re-union. All of you kindly bring cash to the receptionist 

table of our get-together and pay to one of our classmates meant to handle the cash. If you have credit card or debit card, you can withdraw

cash in the hotel or any where nearby. We will not be able to handle cheques or demand drafts as we experienced problems last time.

The hotel people accept both cash and credit/debit cards for the room rent.

Hi,  BULLET (Laxminarayana Reddy) !!!

          Thank you for your compliment on my writing faculty and for remembering me.  I have a bit of photography talent which I owe it to you ... read the following excerpt from my 'scribbling' titled "My Love Story & Good Old Days" to understand how I owe it to you.  

          " ... My father used to send me  Rs.100 per month by ‘postal money order’ (an amount which may not be sufficient to have a good breakfast in a good hotel today !).  Postman used to come to the hostel and deliver the money.  Bank services were not well developed;  credit cards, debit cards and online transactions were not even in the dreams.  After paying the ‘hostel mess bill’ I used to lavish a little of the extra money for my hobby of photography.  The Yashika roll film camera (no digital cameras in those days;  and mostly ‘Black & White’ pictures) of one of my classmates (V.L.N. Reddy who settled in UK ) used to be with me always. ..."

           What happened to that Yashika camera ?  Perhaps, it found its way into a garbage bin !

           Dear Bullet and other friends,  click on the following link of the 'scribbling' I referred to above which would take you down memory lane to the 1960s in Vizag:   http://drtramaprasad.blogspot.com/2017/05/good-old-days.html

Where are N.V. Chalam,  P. L. Rama Dayal, J. Prabhakara Reddy, Satya Pal (Body builder), that Anglo-Indian girl, Simpson, and that tall hefty figure who used to wear a neck tie as a clinical student ?

Dear Friends,

I thought why not to follow our greatest telugu writers of our class Dr Achyuta Rama Rao and Murali Mohan Krishna ?  I can't write like them.

I am making a small effort. I used to write few real classical telugu poems in my SSLC days and a Loyola College (Intermediate) and left it and forgot.   

I wrote few Free hand English poems in BSc and MB;BS and I left that also 60 years back. 

Please read the attached poems and try to give me answers on behalf of GOD.
