7.
certainly everything wasn't good,
not bad, but
there was eternally
something in between
the Gliricidia tree had many dried leaves
some a little green
and some little yellowish
and some in between
the road is vast
enough space at right
and enough at left
but I chose some in between
since we have experienced
the realities
beyond realities
for us
sleeping each night
with half-empty stomach
it has always been difficult
to figure out
the bends in the road ahead
(From my poetry collection, “Always in Transit”)
