LOVE ..
(Love is an experience of search; it is a means than an “end”. Though we try to see the beauty of love and often plunge into the feel of love, the path in search is the pleasure of love. Nature depicts this in different ways. Love is a veiled beauty, beneath which is the stable symbol. This may be unseen, unfound. In life the path itself is the journey of love, or search for love!)
1.
The twilight ripples of shade
wavers in the moonlight to
swaying shapes,
gruelling
to glance that stable beauty .
As a flickering flame
of a glowing lamp,
that dances
with the kiss of the breeze
that browse through –
the search to see the beauty “still”
grows eager and dear !
2.
Silhouette of the sylph
spreads the smile from
the trembling lips,
whisking
through the cool of night
warping the minds
with that misty veil.
3.
The glow that glare
under the moon,
the shining eyes of bright
beneath the brows
of the seagulls’ wings the seas in the eyes
with the depth of
calm and color
valour and vigour
ripples and rattles –
sails
to the unseen shores
and unfound treasures of love.
The jittery joy
to drench
in the spoondrift
beside the sea!
4.
In the hymn of silence,
the beams of moon
knit the subtle veil for her!
Beyond is
the charm of cheer,
the wait for the unseen
beauty!
