The Moon Poem by Shamik Kumar Bose

I saw the Moon just before the Dawn
When the Sky was about to break
With lights in profound sleep
I saw her amidst the White Clouds
That were spiralling around Her neck
Kissing and tossing around with ephemeral waves
Dancing like a baby, laughing and crying all the time
It then looked like something very near to me
Like a spongy bubble
Like a matter of love that can be loved upon
And then whisked away into an eternity

The Dawn broke out suddenly
The lights awaken Glowing with warmth
The Moon shrunk into my heart
And remains still like a point
Ever still Glowing with softening rays
Reminds me everytime
About her
About the Moon.
