I lay by the river and gaze <br />Mulling upon the life’s phase <br /> <br />The daisies and the grass <br />Forgotten how times will pass <br /> <br />The river lapping at the side <br />Shall I ask her to be my bride <br /> <br />Will I for ever Chase the flow <br />Remembering her face aglow <br /> <br />Or shall we walk holding hands <br />Down the aisle in fragrant lands <br /> <br />Pluck a flower to pick its petal <br />Wondering when life will settle <br /> <br />A warbler on the side twitters <br />In warrens my thought dithers <br /> <br />The cuckoo now gathers an dips <br />Remember her an I purse my lips <br /> <br />Wish I only for your tender cheek <br />Oh no! its you whole that I seek <br /> <br />Wren cozies to a hen on perch <br />Loony an lonely I left in a lurch <br /> <br />(Islamabad) <br />(May 07,2009)<br /><br />saadat tahir<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/moon-struck-3/
