ट्रैफिक सिग्नल
ट्रैफिक सिग्नल पर इंतजार करना मुझे पसंद नहीं,
पर उसे तोड़कर आगे जाऊँ, ऐसी मैं नहीं।
तो रुक जाती हूँ जब उसकी बत्ती लाल होती है,
एक जगह रुककर आसपास देखती हूँ।
देखती हूँ कोई मेरे साथ न रुककर आगे बढ़ जाता है,
तो कोई धीरे-धीरे रास्ता पार करता है।
सामान बेचते लोगों को, और गाड़ी वालों को मना करते देखती हूँ,
अर्धनारीश्वर से आशीर्वाद भी लेती हूँ।
वहाँ रुकना पसंद नहीं धूप में, फिर भी रुकती हूँ,
और समेटकर सारा आँखों में,
ट्रैफिक सिग्नल की कहानी लिखती हूँ।
