Holi Moment
Beloved walked across the street,
Breeze rippled through her hair.
All time had stopped, I held my breath,
Just watching her come near.
Bright colors painted on her face,
Holi bonfire's glow.
Then smile lit her face, so coy,
Our gazes met with joy.
Full moon was out, and shining bright,
And air was warm that night.
We held each other in embrace,
As our souls took flight.
