Where did the light go unto could it be that there was a
cloud so enveloping
That the earth went dark and yet there it was
Little and big Fireflies lighting up and the parrots
searching for their fruits
While the tiger felt hungry waiting for game
The women were sitting around the fire by lighting the
leaves and twigs there has
Been a birth a girl unto the world and
The Old Woman was mumbling a song while the younger
ones were enquiring the details
When the Chief arrived to inform
The child is lucky for all of us there has been a decree
Every one will receive rice from granaries as the year has
seen surplus
Cackles of laughter joy and Astonishment in Times of
Drought
No one has heard of Granaries being opened for the
Gentry
The mist cleared for a while and then got thicker
The Old man he took his pipe shared tobacco with three
others
While the village waiting
For rains the mist promised one but will it
It did not but the Hailstorm hit them unawares
Hurried activities the animals huddled and moved to a
barn
There was this summer cold that caught the woman
Who delivered the midwife scolding her of smoking
There in a piece of soiled cloth but bright enough
To make the Little one be seen clearly with its eyes
Closed the woman was Smiling
The Head of family had gone in search of fodder and got
caught
In the Hailstorm
And the Daughter of Light was born
Under a good sign a sign of Hope
