1st: - “Cold ceramic with warm tea” Oozing with lukewarm thought, gives a comfortably numb feeling
ReplyDelete2nd: - “As I do too, yet for me…” Subtle self-consciousness blended with gratitude
3rd: - Too good to comment, still “Ya devi sarbabhuteshu, matrirupenah samsthita”
4th: - “Never the same as love” – Least last lost lust
5th: - “Change the change – The time” – How did you know this!! This is the sole reason I never wear a wristwatch :)
