Love poem Kurunthogai # 355

We could not see the sky
as the dropping rain

You, the Man of the hill, how do you identify my village spreading fragrance of vengai flower?

We could not see the sky as the dropping rain.

We could not see the earth as the flood is flowing.

Everywhere is dark as sun sets.

This is midnight.

All are sleeping.

I am painful.
