Last Night

Last night, Did someone flash in your thoughts? Did some wavering ripples reach The distant shores of your wandering mind, After you had said 'Goodnight'? When the eyelids closed, did your Mind's windows open apart, To look for a prying poet's face? Last night, Was it only he that passed a sleepless night? And counted the ticking seconds of the clock, And patiently heard the lizard's wisdom speech, And the night guard's cautionary whistle? Or, was it you too, Who had the butterfly effect, Of a simple whisper of love? Dhaka 13 January 2015 Copyright Reserved.
