Tomb
Quote: "The Taj Mahal, the symbol of love, signifies that the tomb can be architecture too.” -- unkown
Taj Mahal, a testament, love enshrined,
A marble ode to a love undefined.
Through the ages, its beauty persists,
Eternal love in white marble exists.
A tomb of white splendor, like a moonlit dream,
Where Shah Jahan's love for Mumtaz gleams.
Inscribed in every corner, whispers of devotion,
A monument of love, a celestial emotion.
A captive of fate in Agra's strong fort,
Shah Jahan's gaze on Taj, a solace sought.
In mirrors and windows, reflections so dear,
His heart held captive, a love sincere.
The imprisoned years took their toll,
Yet, his spirit soared, an undying soul.
In the shadows of love, he found his rest,
Beside Mumtaj, in the tomb's silent nest.
Unveiled in death, a union complete,
In Taj Mahal's grace, their love discreet.
Shah Jahan and Mumtaj, entwined forever,
A legacy of love, fading never.
