Moonlight Serenade Poem by Avik Datta Gupta

Walking there along with you..


Beside your silhouette..


Smiling at the feel you're by my side


Sensing the fragrance..


That has come a long long way


Seeing the sweet moon..


That lit up all my nights..


Where did you get all that special glow?


And I had a dream just yesterday..


A dream where I heard you say..


You are always by my side..


And when I asked you where and when


You just smiled and went away..


To the place you seem to hide





Wondering where you came from..


Wondering day and night


Wondering whether it was just a dream


The songs that you always love to sing,


Keep singing in my mind


In a labyrinth of sorts


Lost in the wilderness


How did you findthis puzzle place?


When I said, 'I had a merry day'..


And I thought I heard you say


You've place for me somewhere


And I just want to shout and say..


Come on.. come what may


That you are just not going away








Sending the kaleidoscope


Of your colourful insights


Sending me all that you had in your mind


Sharing all of your joys..and your sufferings


Sharing all those moments.. I just couldn't find


Where did you find this hiding place?


And I just seemed to heard you say..


You also had a merry day


A day you would cherish all the while


And you thought it was just a joke..


When my voice just came to choke


I can't speak, when I see you smile





Terra Firma..the piece of earth..


The place on which you stand..


Seems to harbinger the beckoning of your hand


A part of my very own eyes


Or a flower in wet lands..





The place that no one knows of..


The place from where you grin


Where is this place that I have never been?


And I just seemed to find a way,


When I thought I heard you say


You've found the way to my heart


And when I saw you yesterday,


A pair of blue eyes looked my way


And kept on smiling all the way.all the way
