Randomly Comes The Love Poem by MAHTAB BANGALEE

boatman on the lonely boat
rowing east to west
with the rising sun to setting down

folk-songs play a Cupid game
in the alone heart

an abode of naughtiness
builds a palace to the far
mountain of darkness

moonlight there are
under the veiling of new nymph bride

rhythm of mind river
hails the graceful virgin night

twilight praying
in the peace and war of lusty life

Vesper comes to pour
the petals of night jasmine

starfish walking
on the footless pebbles footprints

girdle ornament sounding
with the narcotic senses

inebriated the around
none there is
just whispering of love
the whole night

the next dawn sun
discovers the two
in the court of intimated love
