Counting Geckos

 

Counting

 Geckos

 On

 Lime

 Washed

 Hotel

 Walls

 

Is

 Not

 An

 Activity

 I

 Would

 Normally

 Advocate

 

But

 On

 The

 Other

 Hand

 Since

 Anjali

 Went

 Away

 

There

 Is

 Nothing 

Else

 For

 Me

 To

 Do

 Today

I know what this is like... I often look at the geckos on the walls and listen to their sounds... they become a familiar part of homelife... you just expect to hear them at night.. there is comfort in that.. like the crickets in the garden. In the moments when you think you are alone you look to nature and it is always there as a presence.
