Snippet on this rainy morning
================================

A glassful of mist.
This morning, night is with me,
coming to the work.
-

Oh, ma!
===================================

On the face of the cloudy sky,
mist and tamarind leaves
have written few rhyming lines.
A solitary crow,
wet, is looking at a drop of
rain falling in slow
motion. At these times only she
can look at a wristwatch.
Getting late means remarks
in the book of the little brat.
Albeit the innocent one is
being engulfed by clouds,
as usual oblivious.

I really loved this. Obviously very pointed references, and I would love to know the story behind this, but perhaps it is too personal. I would imagine that it was very cathartic to write this.

There are parts of this I like and parts I don't understand. I might ask some of the same questions that Kaile asked.

Oh, dear Ku, I can see you as oblivious in your creative moments and it is tough then to hurry to work. This rainy morning inspired you beautifully!

Love,

Margherita
