Poetry is one of my first loves.
And it just happens. There's no time or date to it. There is, however, almost always, a lot of rhyme and reason to it. :)
So, last Sunday, my husband and I were at the Petrol Pump, when we happened to see a bigggg full moon right in front of us. It was beautiful. The moon, the view, the whole feel to it. It was overwhelming. So much that words started welling inside me and I did not even have the time to think if I wanted to let them spill or not. That decision was already made by some supernatural poetry-patronizing power, and I started tapping on my phone. Totally dedicated to my husband and the way his face shone in that magical moonlight, this is what came out of it:
Chand aur uski Chaandni ka
Rishta bahut Purana hai
Dono jab bhi sath ho to
Noor me dooba zamana hai
Chaandni kehti Chaand se
Tumko shayad maloom nahi
Par khud k hone ka ehsaas
Maine tumse hi to Jana hai
Tumse hi shuruat hai meri
Par fitrat mein bikhar Jana hai
Tum bhi to har din Badal jate ho
Is baat KO sabne mana hai
Inki meethi nok-jhok ke
Kisse naye purane hain
Makhmali is aashiqi ka
Deewana sara zamana hai
Par ik raaz hai aisa bhi
Jo shayad sabko maloom nahi
Ki chandni-chand ka ye joda
Sirf waha nahi, jaha sabne Jana hai
Ek aisa Chand hai zameen par bhi
Kuch pagla kuch parwana hai
Jisne saat fero ki saat kasmo se
Mujhe chandni mana hai...!!!
