Twilight darkens, And she springs in joy Of a myriad praises that befall. She, the Sabarmati, Flows across the city, Barely eyed at day, [and But] Adored as the day would fall. She spreads like a smile Across her banks; chaste. Somewhere she does flow Into the sea; yet serene, Like she has always been; Obscured of haste. I watch her flow, For hours and hours, To see if I’m like her. Someday when I go, I’ll be with her; Like a son long lost Reunited with his mother.

Sabarmati
The train halts For the people to alight; And I, faraway, Find ways to **** the night. I take out my diary and a pen To jot down all that I feel then. The train halts. And with several others, I get down To freshen up with a cup of tea. A thought keeps lingering within me; I keep seeking ways to be happy; but Happiness is what I (wish to) have and what I wish to be. And with this honest, humble thought, Hoots the train, I hear. Asking me to get back, For my destination is near. Yet, my journey of life has lots to see, And she wants me to be back on track.

An Hour to Alight
Was alone until you were there; You took my hand in yours, And we walked the times—both vice and fair. You left me with no words To tell you how much I care For you and love you no end. Remember the times we spent In each other’s ***** With nothing betwixt us but love In our sanctum sanctorum. In me you remain, and shall sustain— In a heart that loves you just and sane. Remember me and, no doubt, I’ll be there To bathe you in my love and care.
