Sri Aurobindo — Nirodbaran Talukdar

September 14, 1938

In yesterday’s poem, why do you fear the snow will melt when there is no snow? Only the spaces are white like snow, aren’t they?

No doubt, but snow and sun together still suggest the incongruity. However it can remain – sun on snow but a non-melting sun.
