Perception

On the second floor balcony
I stood, holding the railing and
Wondering at what I saw
Beneath, a portion of the ground
Neatly paved with cement bricks.

‘Strange’, I judged, or else why
That area no one treads got paved?
But then, in the next moment
I realized that it was not a pavement
But a wall collapsed in last night’s rain!

I see that you have quite a different , unique way of seeing things and bring out things differently. I admire it.

a view from a different angle...a new perspective? excellent.

Anil Kurup, Venu Chettan: The piece, I feel, is a byproduct of slow wit :) Otherwise I would’ve got it from the first place that it was a collapsed wall. I’ve never seen a wall collapsed so neatly, it was shaped like bow!
