Fallen to the Ground.




Thumps on the earth.
Vapours dance their way up.
Twigs sway and give in to the cold bliss.
Fallen leaves circle their way round.

Puddles welling up.
Wish the ripples would just stay.

Worms wriggle their way out.
Drenched feathers under shadows attempting flight.
A nest fallen to the ground.
The little ones gaze on, confused.
Wet grass. Murky waters and mud fights.

A sapling that toppled over, drowned in careless joys.
A shoot that gushed out, kissed water.

Drains overflowing. It's monsoons again.
Blurred windows at the red light.
Frantic run to the roof to pick clothes from the wire.
So glad it finally drizzled, says she,
Sitting behind that glass wall.
Beautiful sight. Dozed off in the air-conditioned room.
