SHE

Eyes with kohl .

Deep black eyes like the night skies , black eyebrows like wisps of the night and hair like the night itself .
She smelt like the rain and spoke like the wind .
She wore a graceful smile and walked with diffidence .
When she laughed it was like a gurgling brook and in her eyes I saw my unborn children ........

She walked into my dreams I felt I was in a trance .
I held close against my body caressed her and felt her heart beat .
Was it true ? I cannot believe it ?
Is she there or my figment of imagination ?

Am I beguiled will she be here with me night after night in my solitary bliss ?

She cannot be from this earth ?
A thing so pure and untouched .
A figure of beauty and purity .
Like Madonna , like an angel ,
like Urvasi ........ like Eve !

She was temptation , she was sin , she was lust and she beckoned .........

3 A. M.

At 3:00 a.m. in office .
Rain splatters outside .
I can't hear it .Can't smell it .
Feel like I'm caged in a virtual world .
I strain to look out the air conditioned room .
I see lights and more creatures like me doing the night shift !

I close my eyes .I smell fresh coffee beans . I smell the rain .I smell the cologne of the guy I last made out with . I smile .Thank god for small mercies !

My monitor beckons back to reality .
I let it pass .

I shut out voices of deals struck of Brakes failed of escalations made !
I let them too pass .

I close my eyes I feel myself swinging ....
Up in the sky so blue .....
Above the earth and beyond the stars .....
I imagine walking on the galaxy to never land
intoxication's , temptations and happiness..........

I go into a reverie of past triumphs and sweet success of love and lust and times best .....

I feel it hitting me the high of alcohol the blow of depression .......

I am riding the car into mountains and landscapes of green beauty where clouds like cotton wool form specks on skies .....
Where the stream meanders downhill and birds chirp along ....
A land with no return........

All that and more but back to work for now
Felt great to get away !
Will add more at 4:00 am may be ........

Sounds

The gurgling Brook ,

The Rustling of leaves ,

The pitter-patter of rain ,

The sound of tinkling anklets ,

The clang of temple domes ,

The whisper of pious chants ,

The uncontrollable laughter leading to a gushing overwhelming pleasure .

The breeze of sunrise ,

The rhythm of cadence of waves .

The deep voices of best kept secrets ,

The hushed tones of rumour mongers ,

The pleading voices of vendors ,

The mirth of children's games .

The noise of mobs , carts and vehicles , of buildings and planes ,
The din of the plain humdrum of life ,

Your voice echoes over all of them ....... !

Dearest ,

It's past one a.m. and I'm bored !
Time and again you intercept my thoughts .
The obvious reason is your the password in my office account which I use several times in the day .

In deep Epiphany you flash across my reverie not knowing subconsciously I smile .
All those things about you play in my mind .
Your smile , your voice , your jokes , you poking fun at me ,
the twinkle in your eyes and those hundred dreams I dreamt about you .
I replay the few times we met . The things you said , the things you didn't .
The only time we made physical contact , held hands , you laughed , I was intoxicated !
Why do my thoughts lead me to you ? When I'm sad , Ecstatic , bored or silent .
As your thoughts cross my mind your fragrance lingers on .... The touch .... My dream..... My desperate hope .... your denial ... your acceptance ..... my acceptance .....
our acceptance ......

LOL ! That's what your thinking monkey !!!!!!
