These blinking lights
And passing scenes
From the window of a vehicle...
Having you by my side
My heart is already satisfied.-
These blinking lights
And passing train
They get past fast...faster
Having you by my side
My heart is already satisfied
What more we can ask for
If we ask more from the universe
It only brings suffering.
So, let it be, let it flow
Let our heart filled be with love always.
-
Your beautiful wait at one corner...
Seeing the scene from a distance
My heart stopped for a moment.
The other day I saw your side face-
It is like the slope of the Shivaliks; Gradual and gentle; The river flows below your brown feet! The moment would stay forever with me.
-
Finding you through the mist
I feel the quest has come to an end.
We have similarities
Differences too!
But that differences don't repel us.
-
You wanted me to let go of your arms
And confront this vast world
I moved from one hemisphere to other
With a smile on my face and the few words I learnt to survive;
I met different people..
Everyday, I was slowly dying inside
There was no light to come in
Over the years, I understood
The world remains indifferent!
And we always travel alone
With our own circumstances.
-
Your thick specs
Behind those your narrow eyes...
Became narrower as you flipped through the newspaper.
Towards the end you had to use a
magnifying lens...
as no surgery could fix your retina.
Your reflection through me,
mine through yours,
Your words mine, mine yours
our bond eternal.
-
The poetry was a gift from you!
I recall the slender, dark man.
Always appeared
Younger than his age
Was tender in his heart!-
