Manasi, I wished----

Md Mazharul Abedin 

Manasi,I wished–

To rein you in my arm,

To enseat you by my left side,

And thus to go away afar,

To take you to a blooming over -crowded mustard flowers field

Where in the mass- assembly of the flowers

I wished to sit side by side

To enhear you the bees’ sweet buzzing

And to show their pollination.

I wished—

To seize your mild cool palms

To be more closed at the time of

Hearing the pollination song.

And then to watch the mild trembling of the tip of your sharp nose

And to see eye to eye the depth of your mind

And smell your black hair

And to  wrap us with the skirt of your saree.

And thus I wished to hide us in an another world

Reconciling our body and mind

Forgetting all .

With emptying all the love stored in us

In the over -crowded mustard flowers’ field 

To have the bees as witness of our great mating.
