A Beautiful Dream

As I slept one night I saw this dream
This further increased my vexation

I dreamt I was going somewhere on the way
Dark it was and impossible to find the way

Trembling all over with fear, I was
Difficult to take even a step with fear was

With some courage as I forward moved
I saw some boys as lined in nice array

Dressed in emerald-like raiment they were
Carrying lighted lamps in their hands, they were

They were going quietly behind each other
No one knew where they were to go

Involved in this thought was I
When in this troupe my son saw I

He was walking at the back, and was not walking fast
The lamp he had in his hand was not lighted

Recognizing him I said “O My dear!
Where have you come leaving me there?

Restless due to separation I am
Weeping every day forever I am

You did not care even a little for me
What loyalty you showed, you left me”!

A writer, a poet, and a keen observer of nature, I engulf the emotion of romance and love in my poetry and writings.
