A little human wandered around the thoppu as she liked, <br />The clusters of banana pulled the trees to slant and strike <br />Tall and wide badam trees sheltered the squirrels and mynas, <br />Thousands of fish having their swimming practice in the school of pond, <br />Fast growing egg plants and lady's finger looked at her lovingly, <br />The diet trimmed asoka stood at the perimeter elegantly, <br />She was just an adventurous girl, walking on her own bravely, <br />Grandfather's coconut started to bloom and fruit recently, <br />The areca nut colored the trees with deep red hue, brightly <br />The companion betel leaves climb to show its green creeping, <br />The river was filled with water only six months a year, <br />The rickety bridge had lost few planks during last storm and thunder, <br />She saw the people walked and gathered on the other side, <br />Four people carried something on their shoulders and cried, <br />then they placed the stretcher of palm leaves on the pyre, <br />Flowers were strewn on the thing that was kept in there, <br />Someone lit it and it started to burn from small to big, <br />Everyone turned to return back to live their dreams, <br />that little girl ran back to inform what she had seen, <br />loving crowd at home shocked to listen to her summary, <br />that little girl recorded that clearance in her memory.<br /><br />veeraiyah subbulakshmi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/experiences-really-matter/
