FERRY- GHAAT   ON   RIVER   GONGAA
___________________________________________
Powered , these days, by steam
the  river - crossing - ferry -ghaat
 on  the  Gongaa river
And this  daily crossing-  habit  like  Office-life
 Thirty  or  forty-five  people ,--men,  women , children
for  river-crossing  , peak hours   or   less --- otherwise
each day  from   early morn  to  midnight
waving  and  speeding ,- through, rain storm  or  sun

I  do not  know, -here  to  they  go  --
where from  they come , too , --I  do not  know
From  my riverbank   Balcony  site
 I have the  rare  previlege,   to   enjoy  the  sight
without knowing .

This  way   of  living  in sub-urban  life
this  watching the   River  ,Millenniums old
 this  human- coming and  going  ,---either way
like  any  living life --and experience
-any where,  any when
 ever  seen  and  never  understood
 in  full ----by  me  !
