☆ Maverick Prince…  ☆

☆

He is a celestial fragrance,

will get scattered in the wind

The matter of concern is of

the flower, where will it go…

*

Just thought it to be a normal

wound that will heal itself

Who knew that it would spread

in every speck of my existence…

*

He keeps wandering around like

a maverick nomad only

Like a passing free-will breeze,

He too will come and go away

*

Whenever he visits me, seasons

of the blossoming spring

descends in my courtyard

Giving him a rousing welcome…

*

After all she too must be waiting

on the sand dune somewhere

His love is the river, that’ll flow

there to quench her eternal thirst..!
