It was the extreme dark as no-moon night br Continuously drizzling from long hours br Load shading was active on its routine job br The jackals were howling in bamboo clusters. br br Her soft voice was whispering in my ear br Her long black hair covered me to sway br I was melting like an iceberg in South Pole br Suddenly the rain started … I drifted away. br br I discovered myself in the indistinct dawn br When the people were moving for natural call br The rain had loosened its grip but she did not br It was my ancestral house in west Bengal.
