So cool the poem with its fragrance of nature itself. Dew drop, hare, river, iris and the barefoot boy.....alls are the part of a big-self but tied with each other with a string of necessity.....beautiful is the last word to utter. Thank you. Write more.......10+++(if machine works) Regards, pranab
