You remind me ove

Sunny days
Never having to wear sweaters
Towels thretening to burn your skin
Drink after delicious drink
Of exotic juices
A splash in the water
Not ending in sneezes
An hour long ride without a jacket
Being perfectly normal
Going home for lunch
Eating rice for lunch
Dusty playgrounds
The smell of rain on parched earth
The smell of jasmine in the eveving
The smell of sun dried books
Books, books, and more books
The sight of ripe fruits
About to burst from their skins
The welcome sight of dust
Suspended in yellow sunshine
At all hours of the day

    You contradict here, lady.
    If you publish poems in public domain, they are meant to be read.
    Unless there is any mistake, it's better not to fiddle with what's published once. But yes, you can update your posts with proper indication.
    Not obligatory, but there's something called online etiquette. Hope you are acquainted with that.
    But again if you say that you are the king of your will, feel free to do what you want to do. :)

      i suppose i do contradict myself about publishing and reading, i guess the explanation is more complicated.
      but about fiddling with the text, i don't think i m answerable to anyone about that. this is not a magazine or a paper that needs a final version. if i feel that some words did not explain my feelings fully, i go back and try to express myself better

    I accept your clarification. But my point is you can publish final versions only, can't you? :)
    Minor corrections are okay, but I have seen you changing chunks.
    Not trying to impose suggestions on yoy, but I would strike the (deleted) words while making changes to indicate that changes were made.
    That's widely practised by bloggers.
    Apologise me if I sound interfering; please enjoy your freedom in blogosphere. :)

      i guess i work in a more organic way. i don't really have too many readers, and this has never been an issue before.
      anywyas, i don't know if an article is the final version. i think it is the final, and then later i remember to add/edit

      here, i am sure. at some other points, i m not sure, when we start being acid towards each other, that will end the utility of our anonymous conversations
