A Banyan Tree In My Courtyard

A banyan tree in my courtyard
 That I had planted ten years ago
 Looks beautiful with its large limbs
 As if a beauty queen of monsoon
 Were entering her adolescence

 It smiles when gusts of cool wind
 Touch it with adorable feelings
 Droplets of rain seems curious
 To entice it with intoxicating gestures

 When banyan tree stretches 
 For soft touch of rain drops
 I may feel its emotions
 When my love touched me first time
 In the college rose garden
 And it was raining then

 And today banyan tree of my courtyard
 Seems matured enough 
 To repeat history of adolescence love
 This amazing monsoon.
