I stood in the balcony for a long time....
Staring at the twinkling stars & fine;
Wishing that if any will fall...
I will catch it as though it were a ball....!
When the mischief of winter was at its best...
While the feathery birds shivered in the nest;
I stood alone....waiting for the night
To cover me in its blanket~so dark & tight...!
While the affluent babus rested in their AC chamber;
While the poor man sustained the threats to his slumber...
By Winter,much like a terrorist grave....
But yet he survived with a heart brave...!
& I was there....all awake;
Munching the moon as if it were a cake;
Whispering to the stars my stories n secrets....
Flocked by glow-worms & thousand other insects....!
I was living my dream...with Nature,I guess...
Inventing codes of happiness....
While the city was dreaming in its sleep...
Toiling against the wintry-sweep........!!!
