The  canal in my  village
The  gurgling water flows.
The  North is  The Direction.
 Tradition  speaks .The folks speak.
In them is ingrained  the
established   belief, North 
is luck, North is fertility Myth. 
 The river  carries 
no  emotions
As of  now. But  when it is in
full   spate, fury  bursts.
The  farmers ,ritual believing,
Cook  sweet  pudding to offer,
to   propitiate   Sun
God, 
it  flows to feed many hungry,
Erases  the face of  Drought.
