That afternoon, when she drove, she saw the Man and he saw her.
That night, when she dined, she saw the Man and he saw her.
The next morning, when she walked, she saw the Man and he saw
her.
And so it went—morning, noon and night.
Day after day.
He never spoke.
He never made a sign.
And neither did she.
But he was always—there.
It was midnight.
Midnight in Bombay.
Nana Lalla was in her room.
She lay on her couch.
Her eyes were open.
But she was dreaming.
Dreaming of sweet-smelling flowers.
And soft-splashing fountains.
And bright-beaming eyes.
Of such things the poets prated.
Of such things the singers sang.
And Nana Lalla had read the poets’ rhymes.
And Nana Lalla had heard the singers’ melodies.
She delighted in these things.
Delighted in them exceedingly.
She tossed and she turned.
She sighed and she sobbed.
And then she arose.
She went to the window.
She looked through the lattice.
The moon shone in the sky.
Shone like a pool of silver.
It bathed the world in liquid light.
Nana Lalla loved the night.
And she worshipped the moon.
