Once I closed my eyes.. Okram Shakuntala

 

Once I closed my eyes
In a deep dark Night
Not on the bed
Perhaps in a courtyard

Dancing with you and
Swimming under a deep sea
Like a mermaid

You give life to my poem
Bloomberg so beautiful
Like a garden rose

I flourished in your arms
I got fragrance from your heart

And you protect my poem
Like a throne
I heard a soft voice
In my ear in whisper
Oh my Sweetheart
Lift me like a star
Lead me pure mind to ink
