  4. Beautiful poem, Shail. You most certainly have a poet's eyes and heart, to be able to see the exraordinary hidden behind the most mundane.

  7. Brick has many connotations, starting from very ancient to present, is a witness to history, to civilisation, to prosperity or lack of it and many more. Nice composition, Shaili.
