Resemblence



The shadow of your smile
On a stranger's face
Floods me with relief
Like the first fan breeze
After a prolonged power-cut
On a Madras summer night...

you write beautifully.
"On a Madras summer night.." sounds so much better than "on a chennai summer night"-just a thought.

Interesting way in which you capture the simple joy of relief when the power suply is back... I am sure many people have felt it fleetingly but hardly used it as an analogy the way you do...

Do I have to (also) say that you write wonderfully? ;-)
