I have been thinking not only of the people who lived there once, but also of the generations of dogs accompanying them in their everyday bustle, and one night— I don't know where it came from— in a predawn sleep, that funny and tender phrase composed itself: a road-side dog." - Czeslaw Milosz, Borderlines.

You will remain in my heart for ever. You are true jewel of a woman. I know we will meet again one day. Just wait for the fun when that happens Revathy. Unique, gracious Revathy, I won't forget you.

I didn't know about her illness. I wish I had been able to visit her before the end.

It seems such a pity that she had to go. I was at a poetry reading this evening, adn at the end, I read two of her poems from *Last Possibilities of Light*. Nobody knew who Revathy was, but they all responded to the poems. I wish she had been there to read to them herself. Uma, I never knew how many blogger knew her until the day before yesterday.
