Alleppey, The Venice Of The South

There’s water traffic here
A patrol boat for the officer.
House boats float, stratified according to the standard of living in water.

I take a small hand row boat all by myself, forty years ago, this is in the Veli boat club. I have come straight from school, there is no time to pull out those off-white socks, those water crows are flying and falling onto the water repeatedly.

I did not know then that I would lose the guts to take out a row boat, all by myself, just for the heck of it all.
