Nature, At Her Will....... Poem by Jayatissa K. Liyanage

Nature, At Her Will.......



A wild flower sways to the rhythmic breeze
Brown headed barbet waits on, while keeping eyes on
village lad, picking up ‘veralu’, mother-earth proffers

Nature, At Her Will.......
POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Veralu is a local type of olive like tropical wild fruit, up to about 1 inch long, with a stony nut, covered with a fleshy pericarp, edible when ripe. Children enjoy eating it, very much.
