An Ode to my green eyed princess..

One Morning when the Sun was bright and shining,
the wintry dew was still settling in,
the world was waking up to embrace a new day,
I heard the steps, saw a face that was smiling.

A face that had an unknown language hidden
The green eyes that searched around,
that spoke thousands of words,
where have you been my love? which kingdom forbidden?

I remember when you passed me by on the first day,
it was evening,oh yes,in a red dress
the day was so gruelling, so lacking in hope,
but you gave me a premise for my hopes to lay

There was pleasure to breathe the air around
a few unknown flowers,some I never noticed before,
a few unknown birds, some of them might not have been there before
then I knew your fragrance,the unseen pleasure that would surround.

You,my love,are born from some beautiful heavenly stream
For which travellers and sailors journeyed and failed.
where the treasures of beauty were unlocked
how have I met you? Am I still in a dream?

All those times when I travelled far and wide
all the beautiful things I saw, a white pigeon,
a blue sky,a flight of free birds or a rainbow,
it reminds me of you, day and night.

I have never rested in peace since that day in December,
when I saw you in a yellow suit, carrying a diya
I stood there to see what God has made,
I knew I was watching for far too long, but a better moment of sight I can't remember.

Oh my green-eyed princess,queen of this earth,
would you ever know what you did to me?
you taught me love, you gave me a life to die for,
I will follow u, wherever you go,you have my love and there will be no dearth.
