Poem


By Suryalaxmi R.


I am not the calm river 
You think I am
I am neither the serene sky that my face reflects.
I am the trickle
That hops and kicks in it's course
Through the stony path.
I am the stormy rain
Waiting to unleash it all
When the time is right.
I am the crackling wind
That will take you off the guard.
I am a jolly stream
That will make you flow in it's rhythm.
Don't think you know me when you look into my eyes..
I am not the calmness that shows on me..

Not that we wanted to start the year with travelling but somehow the holidaying mood of year end lingered on us. We had reached home in Alleppey that morning itself. I could have easily avoided this trip but much whimsically, said YES to it.   As happens in case of trips that are neither planned well nor taken too seriously, we started late in the morning from our home in Alleppey with a rough itinerary in mind. My husband, Sree,   was the driver on board as our newly bought car was on it’s maiden drive to hills.   We picked Jijomon, Sree’s buddy, from near his house in Thakazhi which, in itself, is a picturesque landscape with water and fields.
