Rendezvous
Nearing his home town
The war-worn soldier
Felt like he is reborn
His horse strutting in steady pace
But his heart fluttering
In expectant rhythmic beats
From a distance he could see
A silhouette that could hardly conceal
The anxious beauty at wait
Her hands shaking in impatience
Their silent, inert house gate
The moment he came nigh
They smiled in great joy
Hand in hand they walked
Towards the door that’s a bit afar
He stopped all abrupt
Turned to her, basking in lust
Their eyed met; lips did unite;
Their bosoms entwined
Their whole bodies did smolder
As if melting in each others ardor
Slowly they slipped on to the grass mattress
For once; the time-wheel was left impasse
With the whispering sweet nothings
Of the unabashed, impassioned lovers
From behind the jasmine bushes
Hushed up was the midnight silence
Their gushing perspirations
Moistened the stale climate
This entire surreptitious love scuffle
Woke up, a sleeping warbler
To make a deep searching espial
To find out the euphoric couple
In an inseparable yoke;
Crooned a cheerful chirrup
And raised from her roost
To make a flying ovation
To their heavenly coition!
Sathya……
