2) Independent Poem : A Prose Poem

To, The Mellow Moon

Mellow moonlight has no chivalry. It is peeking directly into my heart. Winter snow has settled in this skin. With your tender touch scrape that cold pain. Unzip the layers of snow settled in these legs. Undo the torture of frozen memories. Gently erase coldness of my past. Dormant are the buds of love. Swiftly cast your magical spell. Move your magic wand around. Gently caress this heart. Whisper to spring, ask her to sing that song. Gently bloom like roses and peonies, as spring lasts not long. Slowly I’m melting with snow; dissolving my breath into you. Torture of time fossilized within my eyes. Gently kiss these eyes. Turn those teary sights into starry lights. Be my summer beam turn these tears into sweat, sweetly. Drizzle your charm dreamily. Wash away those stories under the shower of rain.
Gently pluck me from this world. Gently fly me to that mellow moon.

Love Poem: Rubina

Over-wait  by Rubina  How long must you wait, To finally lose enough weight? To have hair that's smooth and straight, But still be hairless bait?  Do you remember all the jalebi you ate? Was it really worth the jiggly gait? And those glasses aren't exactly ornate, Although they do hide those sideburns, at any rate.  You've been on a diet since you were eight. Getting monthly waxes since 2008. Always trying to find the perfect breastplate, To enhance, modify, and accentuate.  Letting too many around you berate, What you and your body create. How long must you wait, To finally lose the hate? To not let the social dictate, Your worth and your fate?

Moonlit Roundabout:Response Poem 2

Narrow was the lane, But so broad the intent. Bought were the things too small, But long was the journey it went. Starry was the surrounding, Glamorous the walls, Sumptuous the history Eerie lifelines so said them all. Meatloaf jumping in the air, Fruits glittering the moonlight, Prayers riding from pointing buildings, Blessed the kid with a visage so bright. Clumsy households, So thin the closing doors, They broke from the surrounding world, Even ruling statues, couldn't bring them close.
