My Poetic Child

Image Source - Google Image Search
Once in a cold winter night
Amidst the sea of dark clouds in the sky
Stood a lonely slice of Moon
With scattered stars for company!
Inebriated with love for the Moon and
Impregnated with yearning emotions
I slept by the window-side, watching
Dewdrops form tiny rivulets on the windowpane!

Deep into the warm embrace of dreams,
Heard a faint knock at my door!
Half-awake-half-asleep opened the door to see
A splendid, single ray of Moon, drenched in chilly mist
Shivering in the cold yet smiling at me!
Brought the svelte ray inside, and
Wrapping in the warmth of my diary
Let her sleep on the table at my bedside!

Woke up sober only to see, alas,
Gone was the Moon’s slender ray!
Crawling in that place was a charming, subtle Verse
Smiling at me, from my diary!
Feeding on my fantasies, feasting on the passion
Consummated was my love for that slender ray of moon!
Born in my dreams, cradled in my diary
Now in my arms, is my little Poetic Child!
