Night’s murky curtain falls
The wind wails, whispers dread songs …
Wrap dreams in cotton wool
Brown leaves burning
Red hibiscus sees prancing flames -
Will this fury abate?
Parijata blossoms
Fearful of the sun’s fiery stare
Fall, kiss the waiting earth
Juicy watermelon
Inviting red. Slake thirst –
No, not a mirage!
A glum plum
Plastic fruit tray dull red –
Shall we ignore it?
