An evocative poem by Mopuru describes nature’s orchestra playing the melody of love, an exclusive for Different Truths.
A lonely cloud sings a rain tune for the beloved earth. The moon sings the song of the moonlight for the embrace of the beloved. The Sampangi flower sings a song of fragrance for her beloved honeybee. The cuckoo sings a melodious song for the beloved spring. If you can listen, this world is filled with love tunes And blissful bonding between the lovers.
