This poem, writes Neelam, came to her as an inspiration in tumult time of Cauvery Water issue, which led to the outbreak of violence and arson, disrupting peace and security at large.
to remember the fragrant moist of rain or you promise a pact of trust in shadow and seasons to watch the bloom, never again drought or wind. You let small grains shift at base so it could stand much stronger, much longer for both of you. Small things that make heaven can't be easily forgotten or taken for ride, needs patience for time.
