It Was Love

Juvenile the age We got together; Nature drew us by means Of attraction, allurement, touch; Got closer and closer, And finally cohered; Yet far from 'love', Dreamed together live for life; We were sexy for each other, Quenching lust was our aim; Don't blame none, As was nature's law, Enticing us to bring new life; When kids were born, We lived for them, And only kids in mind; Yet slowly slowly In heading ripe age, Without our notice, Tender yearn evolving 'love'; Sunder was painful, Togetherness was all; She lived for me, I lived for her; Her feelings mine, And my feelings hers; It was 'love', She knew my taste, And I knew hers; Tone of our pulse rate, Was in same tune; It was 'love', Evolved from body to soul; © Sadashivan Nair
