A Night Journey ~ Poem by M. Asim Nehal

I continue to float in the lustrous holy river
where the white dove of desires hovers
between the shores of my heart.

I construct a bridge of love over the fate's inebriated lips
to quench my cup's thirst, where the virgin red roses
wait to be crushed by passionate deed.

I soar through the night sky on a starry chariot
drawn by two white horses while the drunken moon
plays with me all the night long till dawn breaks.
