Dear friends,
Here are ten verses addressed to Girija, Kamakshi and Annapurna called SRI KAMAKSHYA ANNAPURNA GIRIJA DASAKAM. The sloka is translated by the well known blogger and translator of countless stotras and documents/books in Sanskrit to English, Sri.P.R.Ramachander and reproduced here with his kind permission.
But i am unable to get any information about the author who wrote this beautiful sloka of ten verses.
Would be grateful if our learned seniors enlighten me on this.

Sri Kamakshya annapurna Girija Dasakam
(The ten verse prayer addressed to Girija, Kamakshi and Annapurna)
(Lord Shiva is cursed by the sages of Daruka Vana , that he should beg alms from his own wife. Here is a very pretty prayer in which Lord Shiva tells his consort that he is hungry and requests her
For alms. I could not find who wrote it and wherefrom I have downloaded the great stotra. If some scholar can help , I would be grateful.)
1.Mandhara kalpa hari chandana parijatha ,

I am hungry , so please give me alms , Oh Girija ,

In the middle of Mandhara , karpaga , hari chandana and Parijata trees,
Who has forehead like the moon’s crescent and has three eyes.
2.Keyura hara kadakangadha karna poora ,
Kanchi kalapa mani kanthi lasad dukoole ,
