The lights of Gori..

Mohini stood at the brink.. near a tree.. looking at Vishmak as he did cut out logs from dry shrubs or bushes big enough.. and woods that were over grown..

He spoke from where he stood..

Vishmak: rest if you are tired.. i am going a little deeper .. further in woods.. you will still hear me..

he moved further .. away from the mass of piled chunks he had set near a couple of big trees..

Mohini felt a numbing as Vishmak whispered in her ears.. a croon.. a grey cloud engulfed her body .. and as she shied away.. her soul.. set on fire of his warmth .. that rose in her heart.. suffocating her existence in the surrounding filled with brilliance of multiple coloured flowers..

Mohini: let me go..

She jirked up and walked out from the edge..

The sun was about to set.. and it would be dark soon.. she looked at the hill and the small house above.. Vishmak had built for them as he had said yesterday.. when he had become sure that she was in this region.. he had a flash of vision .. he had seen her in dream.. . .. as he had said.. he had built this house to live with her untill they returned to north.. he sensed Mohini might like this place if so it wasnt fitting to disturb her least she might runaway again.. he feared so.. as he had explained to her.. yesterday.. night..

She gathered some dry leaves to light a fire under the shadow of the giant rock..
She lit fire and set beside.. looking at the house as it looked brilliant under setting sun..when the sun sank.. the immediate area in the lights by fire lit up and then as the shade of rock lengthened and disappeared into the woods.. the surrounding filled with brilliance of bright light within the range of rock shade periphery encircling ..

Vishmak was in the woods cutting logs to put boundaries to their house.. she had argued to accompany him in the fear of Maiysesura.. wherever he went.. he had asked her to wait outside the dense of woods.. Maiysesura had come in this area .. many times.. .. looking for her..

Vishmak: it's nightfall .. yet you have turned up the area with light.. where did you learn this art..

Mohini: Gori..

Vishmak: it's quite useful.. let's go inside.. i have turned up few drags in the woods to watch.. and a couple of synchs.. if he came around he should fall in ..

Mohini: i am so afraid of him..

She clutched on him..

Vishmak: if he don't get trapped in.. i will go hunting him in few days.. please don't be afraid..

Mohini: i will come with you..

Vishmak: yes.. be careful in the woods.. the drag is powerful ..

Mohini: yes. ..

She did hide her face in his shoulders as he picked her up and walked up the slope and in to their hut..

The Painted dice.. of Mithi..

Silni bent down carefully to pickup a small bright coloured object that fell off from an open pot set atop her head.. filled with children's toys .. and sweet chocolate toffeis made in saccharine and jaggery.. the noon sky flashed a sharp sun that had just come out of thin clouds.. summer flared on hot earthen surfface as shrubs and bushes exurbs.. small brilliant berries.. and wild cactus with red prickly dotting golden flats in red green and dusty.. heat burnned softly on her shoulders as sweat trikkled down her neck.. She looked About as she pikked up the object.. that had fallen out.. on earth.. putting it back.. a yellow and fluorescent toy inside coir pot .. searching for a spot to rest.. spotting a neem tree a little ahead.. standing on roadside path on a walk towards a slightly big hut .. few children played afront. Ahead a little further away from roadway to a big farm . the roof shade.. with a couple of cattle.. she walked to neem tree and set the container beside a fl...

The Pyre..

Moori came up to surface out of water.. in a single plunge .. the water was cold.. and the summer night smoggy and humid.. filled with October heat.. sea roared a humm of a lover.. as she surfaced and walked out to sands.. water ran through her form wrapped in white.. fabric.. a light reflected on her as she neared large trees .. forming a dense jungle coastline woods.. her clothes flashed yellow in light from fire near a opening to jungle from seashore.. as she neared the fire she had started before taking a plunge into sea.. nearby.. trees.. a shadow moved out behind her.. and disappeared a little further down the line.. she continued looking ahead .. Yajmi stood beside a large tree looking directly by fire.. his mind in the claws of questions and thoughts of this female .. he trembled as his legs wobbled under the vision in front .. of him.. She neared the pyre and climbed a small step of logs and set on heap.. she always set up as long as the fire burned out in cold black stu...

The clocks..

Around midnight.. Nytili went to balcony facing street in front her house.. the wind blew cold .. it did snow nearby mountain last week.. and the swarm of heat hasn't picked up yet.. it was empty obviously and dark.. with poles shadowing in yellow lamps.. farther nearby crossing.. winter nights are so long.. she thought.. chilling.. the clock rang two thirty.. so it wasn't midnight.. but well past .. she went to bed again in her room.. she lay thinking about ... voice.. of the clocks.. it sounded so much like.. the bells in temple.. only that.. the bell strings needed to be pulled but the clocks did strike automatically... and the fact that they were set manually once during day seemed none existent somehow.. it was like the haystacks in her field.. .. they looked beautiful and set.. under sun.. But they were totally flat when rolled.. against the dark background of woods.. She fell in restless slumber.. and wokeup in an hour.. getting up.. she tried to setback.. she pe...
