If I Were! Poem by Neela Nath Das

If I were in the same
college with Rupert Brooke!
And there is another if....
If I happened to be his girl friend,
wow! I can't imagine,
what could have been the scene.
Handsome and me in King's college,
studying together!
Uh! uh! uh!
Don't break the bubbles
of my reverie!
Let it have more shows!
Beauty and beauty
when meet barely,
what goes on you all
know(as he expressed) .
Hugging, bosoming, rolling,
so on and so forth.
'Shreds of shadowy laughter'
(His phrase) .
And pleasure-passed
two beauties lying
together like peaceful pigeons!
The last scene ending with
the words- - - - - - - - -
This is the beginning....
Or, thus they lived happily.
No war,
no bloodshed,
as if he(Dear poet) hadn't been assigned as
The Royal Naval Volunteer!
There was no first or second world war!
