“There is a gate through all must pass
We all must pass through it alone.
A gate none can bypass or skip
It is open from time ever.”

Mailboxes longing for messages
On March 4, 2018

“Writing letter
A forgotten art
Only used for
Business act.
Letters written
Recorded memories
Always remained
For generations.
Will those days
Ever come back?
Will the mailbox
Smile again?”
(T. Chandrupatla in Mailbox today)
