CHILLY NIGHTS

A family chatter
Poverty stricken
Simmer out
From inside
The make-shift
Thatched, mud and
Walls of bamboo maze
Dulls and drab, the
Yellow kerosene lamp
In dreary winter
Cold nights, and
Seethe me in turmoil
And, behold!
Silence talks
Time to time;
Howling dogs
Barking the invisible
In chilly
Windy nights.
