Notes About The Poem

chromatic undulations

she hung her sari out
on a hilltop clothesline

wisps of colours to the sun
playful lengths of silk
toying with the breeze 
flowing swaying dancing
no fanfare no introduction no applause

just the unexpected gift
of an exquisite peaceful moment
of breathtaking beauty
on a sunny april morning
