The night I anticipate to come ...







Rowing on the plank of wood,
With you by my side,
Sheathed under the pallor of moon,
In the tranquility of unflappable water,
With savannahs staring us from the sides,
Is the night anticipates me to come.

Shore far away from the sight,
Amidst the green water
All night,
Staring far at nothingness,
With thoughts tranquil as the inert pasture
On the water side,
Is the night anticipates me to come.

Fingers fiddling betwixt fingers,
Body resting on the resilient shoulder,
Limbs rubbing coyly against each other,
Souls flowing out to be together,
Is the night anticipates me to come.

Stillness on the move,
Softness in the wilderness,
Darkness in the pallor,
Loneliness in the togetherness,
Is the night anticipates me to come.

On the shore,
Dreaming the night
I anticipate,
I held the horses for long.
Hide and seek has been played enough.
Shun the thoughts!
Come along!
To make the night I anticipate,
The real,
Giving a reason
In our reminiscences
To beam wide.

When the celestial music faded away ...







The celestial music,
When
Faded away in the distance,
Rejoiced the enticed Gopis no more.
The syrupy butter in the carved jars,
Crowned one above the other,
Emptied no more.
The damsels you toyed with,
Complained no more.

No more,
The cheerful cows grazed.
No more,
The animals kids chased,
Played.

No more,
The vivacious peacocks,
Plumes opening wide, danced.
No more,
The fresh leaves,
When the silent dews tickle, giggled.

No more,
The playful birds fluttered.
No more,
The delicate fishes shimmered.

The sturdy mountains,
The dense forests,
The milky rivers,
The dreamy nights,
The happy dawns,
Exists no more.

Mirth lingered
No more.
Gazes got tired
No more.
Souls relented
No more.
Hearts loved
No more.

Words have died away.
Emotions have gone astray.
Life has come to a stay,
When the celestial music,
You played,
Lingered
No more.
