The little drizzle flowed into the well
The water gathered to commune
With thirsty men and women
Everybody knows it wouldn’t last
Even I knew it would not last
But I camped by the well
For days on end quenching thirst
Oblivious of the days I’d go thirsty
But then such kind of thoughts never gather
For in the little drizzle, I confused for abundance
I even became generous, dishing the little to strangers
Way before even my loved ones reached the well
I bragged that the well was my own bounty
For I have stayed longer beside this dry well
Waiting for the little drizzle
