Nainsook
Nothing is lost from life
Nano or a macro
Nettle or petal soft
Near or in nebula
Nainsook like nice they are
Nerve soothing, when we are
Nestled in deep yoga

Note: Though the word Nainsook is not uncommon in English stll it will facilitate understanding the poem if we know that the word originates from the word “Nainsukh” in Hindi, Urdu and Bengali . Nain (or Nayan) means eye. Sukh is pleasure. We may say the nainsook moonlight.
