Flower petals on moonlit waters
Cloudy cheeks of velvet black night
Stars shone as eyes of night bright
Watching me play at that
Cool meadow of childhood..
So many days and nights went by
Passing memories with colour and light
Somewhere between then and now
Childhood left over with no turn..
Those were times with full of dreams
Which came true with growing by
Cherishing memories are now dreams
Haunting in the depths of mind….
As moon peeps on sleepless nights
Pouring silver light on earth
With the creamy cheeks unchanged with time Brings me sensation of dreams…
