Morning Scenario

Ladies in the city, gather on street For a pot of water, they yell and fight. To sell his vegetable baskets, touts the vegetable vendor, aloud he shouts. A butterfly breaches the camaflouged pupa, stretches the wings, starts her first flight. A little boy gets persistent scoldings from papa for his low marks, stands he like an armoured knight. Waiting for customers, cobbler opens his little shop. Searching for a job, a young man wanders non stop With perturbed and prudential thoughts, swirls every mind. Caring about nothing, there on the tree, near branch twined, sings notes, a koel, from dawn to dusk

Wow. Wonderful. The Tamil Poet Nirmala Suresh also had the same vein of writing about the morning. I enjoy reading such. Keep Posting.

Great images you painted Supraja! Loved it especially the Joel singing. It is not bothered, it sings despite worldly choas.
