Hugs-2
HUGS
The day after the Tsunami hugged the shores,
by a penitent ocean lying low,
in the beach which lay mauled and scarred,
an old woman and a girl stood homeless and hugging
and not far away
a bower lay crumpled, within which
but stood tall as always the two-some
of a neem and a banyan in an unshakeable hug.
