the wind was carefree
leaves didn’t move much
as it did the other day
dusts dance to the tune
of footsteps from a proverbial
figure coming near
you smiled at me with your usual
familiar smile, your eyes like a
diamond star glued to mine
intently conveying its meaning
sandwiched between zest and chill
I tried to sift those sweet smiles
that’s dissolving me quick
and before I knew it
your cloud-like lips ushered me
to eternal bliss and the leaves
started to move afresh
