Mar 2017
Sunday noon after a heavy lunch
Gravely falling into a small nap
A knock at the door woke me up
Jumped out of my sleep to see
Out in the courtyard drying red chillies
Coconuts cut into pieces left in the sun
Unaware hit by a piece of coconut on my head
Turned over to catch the thief red handed
On my way to room with a frown
Thief with a coconut busy scratching
With a knock on my room's door
She, the black cunning crow!
