Nature's Tit-Bits

Nature's tit- bits! Gentle droplets of rain on the colocasia leaves slide like glossy silver grain wish these pearls my palm receives and I weave them into a chain! A black-pepper vine climbs round the coconut palm saying 'am yours and you mine wish this obsession to my heart embalm! and me in my love -life assign! In the moist soil take shelter black ants and the root-grubs safe beneath the damp leaf litter My heart seeks refuge in such secure hubs and wish my life with deep trust glitter! A squirrel burries the nuts in soil leaves there to sprout as it forgets Trees do come up as bad weather foil wish I plant in my life such goodness and let sweetness in others' life uncoil ! © Anulaxmi Nayak,2015
