Poem

One night  returning  home from the marketplace 
Street lights  suddenly went out.
I could see the road  curving in the headlight of my car.
After driving for some time ,I reached a place
By the side  of a streamlet.
Yet there is no streamlet in my locality
Nor on the way  from that market place to my home.
Confused I turned back but reached at another place.
This time by the side of a rill ,water  hyacinth  floated,
Some houses standing quietly in the darkness
On  its other bank.
Again ,I failed to know where I was;
It seemed nature disguised herself in another garb.

Then, to my relief, in that lonely atmosphere
I saw some local youths loitering.
I asked them  for directions to  my locality.
One of them gave me directions of the routes 
I should take
I resumed driving my car to the direction he indicated .
After driving some distance  on the right turning roadway
I saw some women  standing  on the roadside
A  pressure lamp placed before them.
Oh, a  beautiful girl I saw among them !
She seemed  like a maiden in an oasis
To a tired wayfarer who lost his ways in the desert.

I politely asked them  for direction to my locality
Not sure, although told by those youths  which  direction to go.
One of them   told me to go further till a crossroad
There to turn left and drive to find my locality.
I again drove my car.
Then the street lamps illuminated the dark street  and  I knew
The place where I  was .
Oh, that was the place I frequented, and  it
Not far from my locality.

I reached home, finally out of a big puzzle.
But I felt  that night  I  had roamed to  unknown places
Exotic  in the darkness of the night .
It was an exciting experience .
