A Walk In The Rain (2) Poem by Dr Kamran Haider Bukhari

do you speak?
yes I do
lovely, at least you said it once
hope by the end of this walk
you would say twice more
she smiled
so, what do you do?
other than luring the walking beauties
I do many things
can’t stick to one
can I hold your hand?
not a good idea
you just said
you can’t stick to one
hey! come on
I didn’t mean it that way
I couldn’t resist
and the moment tips of my fervent fingers
touched her wet hand
she uttered silently
yes I do
I heard that through her eyes
responded with a little giggle
she gazed in the depth of my eyes
and spoke in the tone of Venus

listen dear!
live this moment
feel the touch of indulgent rain drops
on your sizzling skin
don’t make it complicated
keep it simple and serene
who knows what life would bring us
next moment
you never know
had you ever expected
that we would meet like this
so just don’t think too much
that’s it dear!
got to go now
can I see you again?
she boldly kissed my cheek
and gone with the wind
as she left
it felt like
my soul is no more in my body
