இதோ அவள் வருகிறாள்…
காத்திருப்பது மண்மட்டுமல்ல
என் மனமும் தான்
அவள் வந்துவிட்டாள்…
ஈரமாகிப் போனது நிலம்மட்டுமல்ல
என் நெஞ்சமும் தான்
இதோ அவள் சென்றுவிட்டாள்
என்று வருவாள் என ஏங்கி
காத்து கிடப்பது ஊர் மட்டும்மல்ல
இந்த ஊமையனும் தான்

தேவதைகள் பூமியில் பிறக்கிறார்கள் – மகளெனும் அடைமொழியோடு.
தேவதை என்றால் எப்படி இருப்பாள் என்று கேட்கிறாள் மகள். அவளைப்பற்றி அவளிடமே எப்படி கூறுவது?
புரை ஏறும் போது நாம் மெதுவாக தலையில் தட்டினாலும் வேண்டுமென்றெ இன்னொரு முறை இரும்மி தானே தட்டிக்கொள்ளும் என் மகள். அழகு!
நிலாச்சோறு மூன்று வகைப்படும்.
விழிகள் விரித்து தன் ஆசைகளை விவரிக்கிறாள் என் மகள். இந்தப் பிஞ்சு மனதில் இத்தனை கனவுகளையா சுமக்கிறாளென்று விழிவிரித்து நான்!
