Interesting read ..part agree and part disagree, but then there isnt an opinion on living alone in a town like Madurai,so!

Goes out as a tribute to Deepti Pande :) //you know why//

the little gal

as she stood in that corner
With her little packets of dreams
hugging them tight,never to let go
waiting for someone to see her
and give her the helping hand she would not ask for
giving every passer by a simle
the corners of which are salty wet
invisible to all,only her dreams can see
tears that have stayed so long
have widened her eyes such

i wish i could walk to her
and give her a warm hug
wipe her face dry
give her eyes some rest
open all her dreams
let them fly around her
filling the air with fragrance and delight
bring that playfulness back to her
see her jumping with joy
not knowing or caring who passes her by
long lost in the comfort of her innocent delight

i wish i could walk to her
and slap her face tight
bring her to face reality
and scorn at the passers by
ask her to walk on
dropping each dreamy packet on the weather beaten way
or just get swallowed by the earth thats waiting to eat her away
