will u bear with cold tonight
or just wither away
shrivel
and withdraw
your spirit
and then die
i can cover you
with a shawl
kashmiri shawl
ensure that your leaves do not fall
but then every one who passes by will know
i tried to hide but
and could not restrain
had to ultimately show
the whims of wasps
taht go close to light
and then do not ever come back
