The Glimpse

Mehal 1995 (Rajkot)



The night was cold and busy minds,
The moon was starring at the sight.
Arrival was with some delay,
Joyous hearts had eyes on the way.
 
They came, they sat and had a chat,
And resonance generated as they met.
Distant place yet minds similar,
Views got changed, that lasted earlier.
 
Rushed with load, to find a same kind,
But a glimpse did change everything around mind.
The place transformed like a filmy scene,
Nothing could be observed, but two golden beams.
 
Tone became timbre and impedance matched,
Memorized every moment from the time it caught.
Leaving for a ride, waving a goodbye,
World rotated 180,with the glimpse of sight.
