LOVE IN THE TIMES OF RAIN
By
CHANDINI SANTOSH
We married in the rains,
The pitter patter of rain
Constant and tireless
I came in from the rains
While you smoked a beedi
You had a caught in the act smile
We were young thighed
Yours long and muscular
Mine just opened fruit
Avocado like,
Hard on the outside
Deep and glowing inside
Time is a never ending Neanderthal river
Slow where it begins
Picking up momentum
Where it falls from precipice to precipice
Down to the ocean
In a relentless downpour

This pix was clicked when Santosh was very ill. Inspite of all that, he saw patients. A part of the clinic can be seen.

The value of money - It is more than money!... chandini, shall we change the title to "magalasuthra..." .. or whatever you like it..
We are setting the pages of the FOKANA souvenir.. thank you
Please yourself, its fine by me.
please suggest.. your suggestion is most valuable.. also, what pictures to go with this and the poem.. i like to include your paintings as illustrations for this... thanks
If its for a local audience, you could name it Mangalsutra, but if its for the global audience, the original title would be better. You can attach my painting - COUPLE IN THOUGHT.
It is for malayalee audience.. hence, i will use maglasuthra.. thanks
