A Sighing Woman
In the night,
when a shattered moonbeam
fell on the earth piece by piece
and scatter all over on the deserted plain,
a woman lived many and long years of pitiful life
went like dew on the grass.
The bridle of misery
the woman tried so hard to shake off
yet she was, to the bitter end, unable to unbridle it,
and hence, heaped in a mound of grudge,
it poured in a heavy rain at last night,
rushing on a vast expanse.
To pacify the raging water,
at the time when her grudge fell in a misty rain on the river,
she sits by the window of resignation and heaves a sigh to let
pass the all abhorrent memories from her troubled heart.
