LOVE (LXXI)

Love was never the way it was

One being day and other the night

One being dark and other the light

Heard that the opposites attract each other

But felt it for the first time

One being sun other the moon

One being midnight other the noon

Realised that there are no opposites

They are part of each other

And one is incomplete without the other.

LOVE (LXX)

Love is a shining star
Love is a dazzling flower
Love is the sound of rustling water
Love is the cooing of cuckoo in forest
Love is like blossoming bud
Love is like chirping of birds
Love is the splash of first rain
Love is glow of the snow covered mountains
Love is like a cool calm sea
Love is like the golden beach
Love is the sweet spring
But without you Love is nothing.

LOVE (LXIX)

I never knew love before I met you

I never knew how to love before I loved you

I never felt special unless embraced by you

I never laughed until I saw you

My day never ends until I talk to you

I never felt beautiful unless praised by you

But now,

I had never missed anyone the way I miss you

I never knew pain before I left you

I am incomplete without you

I never knew love before I met you

I never knew how to love before I loved you.

LOVE (LXVIII)

Talking endlessly for hours

Everything from romantic, sweet and sour

Days have passed

But the talks still last 

From midnight till the morning sun rises

Your talks keep giving more surprises

Each time I understand you differently

And the love increases incidentally

I immediately forget my sorrow

And look forward for another tomorrow

When again we could talk endlessly for hours

Everything from romantic, sweet and sour.

LOVE (LXVII)

I know little about him

Still I know him

I see my mobile every two minutes

Expecting his message

I log in my email every ten minutes

Expecting his mail

He is silent

And I used to hate this silence

But now this silence, this stillness, itself is so soothing, 

calming and comforting

As if in this silence only I can understand him 

and he can understand me

I think I am falling in love again.

Vijaypur, Uttrakhand, India

POETRY (LXVI)

She used to write poems

And he used to read them all secretly

She was silent about her feelings

But he understood all her poetry

Poetry has so much power

It made him love her unconditionally.

LOVE (LXV)

Brightness of sun is ceaseless

Shine of moon is endless

Shades of rainbow are eternal

Water of ocean is immortal

Lustre of star never waves farewell to it

Colour of flower never bids adieu to it

In same way my love for you is inseparable

It’s everlasting and integral.
