The Valentine Song

By Bindu Unnikrishnan

Swiftly through the wind

When you sent whispers 

It was then, that my heart

 Just skipped a beat

for it reminded millions of moments

that I imagined,  but couldn’t live

the promises to meet ,

ended in retreat

for parallel we  flow 

like those river banks that never meet.

Like the fragrance of the garden blooms

May you live without any gloom

May this valentine , like every other,

Wishes , not rose petals make way to you.
