I asked a girl of nineteen,
"Can you tell me what love is? "
The girl with a shy smile said,
"I know only this that I was frozen on a mountain,
the sun kissed me with its warm sunlight.
I started melting,
stealing narrow ways for a fall
I fell on the earth,
dancing I arrived on a plain,
the sun vanished from the sight,
but a mirror appeared on the sky
that reflected my first love
as cool and soothing moonlight
the water in me turned in wine.
The whole of my body,
became a victim of ecstasy.
my heart started singing,
my soul started writing poetry.
Is love anything other than this ecstasy? "
The girl then started crying.
"Why in love there is a moonless night! "
A beautiful poem of love that holds us spellbound. Magnificently crafted and well conveyed.10++++
Love is love, dear Jawad, nicely penned, thanks for sharing
Akhtar Sahab, a tender, passionate poem of young love beautifully portrayed........10
...... as the ecstasy grows within she succumbs you all call it love some sin some but the union of a woman wit a lover is only what we all say is love let the moon peep in only to see who is lovelier She or she earthly @19
Such beauty in the lovely gal I'd love to meet her Compare her with the moon love her despite my age and love doesn't see the structure nor does it always mean or The beauty of love in your eyes lies and so often all men lie as in lie so that later they can play and let the girl then go astray Love in man's eyes mostly lies as lies the moon so far is a virgin till a woman is touched so is she but then....CONTD
This Poem flows from great imagination......The last line is so meaningful- - ' Why in love there is a moonless night!
