    Dear Malathy,
    A poem on a beautiful rainbow, rising sun, beautiful moon are very common.
    But you have shown your talent by describing the eclipse !
    You rightly said, it needed a moon to humble the sun !
    Your imagination is very enjoyable - not run of the mill type.
    Love,
    Chithra.

    Thank you Chitra,
    Nature mesmerises me so much that my thoughts just start flowing into verses. In fact I do not want to take credit for my writings because I feel some unknown force enters into me and takes over my mind and thoughts during such times when I am emotionally charged.I owe it all to that unknown force. To be very frank,there were some ego problems between me and my hubby and the total solar eclipse occured during that time. So you can replace the sun and moon for hubby and wife and re-read the poem! Ofcourse by putting my hurt ego into verses I got over my depression and at the same time became more forgiving.This poem was written way back in 1996 and we are still a happily married couple!
    Regards,
    Malathi

    hello

    one more to join the little lines gang..
    1996 or 1886
    eclipse is always the same..
    putting it into words...
    has perhaps eclipsed your bad mood..
    comparing yourself and hubby...
    lighting the world or what..?
    ya...the best verses are written
    when we are down..a little depressed
    or crying...the words offer solace..
    and beautiful words are strung like beads
    to adorn a page or two..

    happy writing in il

    Dear Malathy,

    While reading your poem, I felt that it was more like an argument between two people and now that you have explained, it is more clear.

    I normally write letters to my hubby :)tongue ) but you are pouring it out in verse and very beautifully. When we can pour out our feelings on paper, it takes a lot of the animosity out of the feelings and makes you feel better.

    Do publish more of your poems for us to enjoy.

    Chitra

    Thank you Chitrajan for having undrestood the deeper meaning of the poem even before my explanation! But the fact is that my hubby doesn't know that I have dedicated poems to him and that I owe my talent to him! Ofcourse the talent was in me all the time.I remember,as a child, I used to climb up to the roof of the steel bureau in our house and scribble poems on bits of paper! But it never occured to me that it was a God given gift at that period of time!
    The talent seed may germinate as per the environment and circumstances. Some times it may die too for the same reasons cited above.But such a death when it is just beginning to sprout is an intentional neglect or killing of the seed by the person in whom it was sown by the Creator!
    Thank you once again for having enjoyed my poem.You are again a source of my inspiration for writing more poems!
    Rgds,
    Malathi
