When he saw her he heard
A crash of cymbals , and
The start of an unwritten
symphony
To which his heart was
beating time
She smiled – he experienced
The fragrance of a shower of
petals
The blinding light radiating
from her
Hid all else around !
They met –her voice excited
him
Her intelligence stupefied
him
Her zest for life caught him
up
Its wave swept him off his
feet
They talked and laughed,
Shared meaningful silences
Seriously, gravely,
laughingly – sometimes angrily
Lived through a gamut of
emotions
Enough for a lifetime
They started drifting apart ,
A little knowingly then
farther unknowingly
Drifting till nothing was
left – save
The knowledge of existence
More of each one’s Self than
the other’s
And for both it became to
remain but
An encounter - with what?
Do not ask …….
They would not be able to say
Except perhaps that
It was an incident shared
By strangers who remained
thus
Beautiful poem,my dear friend Vikaas..left me speechless π€
