Summary[edit]

Description

I never managed to catch her in the process - she got up in the morning far earlier than I . Amma lived alone in a semi-hut and her kollams were, well, unique. They seemed to have no boundaries. Others were happy doing a design right in front of the door, but often Amma would just "go off" and start freestyling all over the sidewalk.

She was always concerned that I was in the house alone and admonished me to lock the gate behind me (all in Telugu, of course, but I understood through her mimetic gestures).

She had two beautiful Mangalagiri saris that she wore on alternate days - one maroon, the other forest-green. How did she know they are my favourite colours?
