YOU AND ME

Enveloping caress of moonlight

Stirs the lake placid within

Like two enamoured sculptures ,

we lean on each other

Listening to the resonance of breaths

Move like two fireflies, hand in hand

Whispering.. caressing.. groping

Hearts entwined, eyes probing

Lips quivering like thin leaves

I am yours and you are mine

That is the only truth sublime

A divine desire lurks, flows into veins

Hold me deep within you

Let us soar high

Sing fervent rhapsodies

And reach the crescendo

being alive in the flow ..

ECSTASY

My heart fills with joy

When I hear you

calling me 'Jasmine '.. !

Its like discovering my buried self

You make me spellbound

with your enchanting words..

How you a create a realm of magic

with your diction !

Life sometimes becomes a fiction for me

Like a sweet breeze you came

into my life

mingled with my breathes

just as lyrics mingle with melody

I am far away..distant from you

but still I feel

the touch of your magic wand..

Slow down !

don't love me this maddy way

Like the jasmine dropping all night

I too may get scattered

I may be lost in you

I don't know where , if I am lost

Do I find my lost self again..?

In love one is not lost

It is like a new discovery

I am oblivious of my pain

Losing myself in your Jasmine fancy...

NIGHT TRANSFORMS ME TO A RIVER

At night when sleep befalls

On close eyelids

Earth , drapped in a dark curtain ,

Immerses in profound silence

In the vast yard of the sky

Stars play hide and seek

The moon blushes

kissing the fleecy clouds

The azure sky sits relaxed

Smiles at the merriment

Beguiled by the night sky

My passions awake

After being silent whole day

Dragging life's routine

The moon with its silvery rays

Blows up my frigid emotions

The serene night makes my spirit

Loud and supple..

Transforms me to a volatile river

Flowing ecstatically

Enjoying the sweet music

of the fragrant humming air

Waves of the river resound my smiles

Curves sing sagas of love

In the heart of the river

The night germinates a fancy

A yearning to reach the sea..

The destined goal of every river

The destination of love

To mingle and merge with each other

As the night goes deeper

The river grows more thirsty

Gets frenzied to meet the sea

Because it knows

The sea owns the soul and body of a river
