The Grey Lights# 44
☆ –“Desert Rose”– ☆ Shri Ashish Mulay ☆
(Based on My Persian Adventure)
☆
See the rose
blooming in the desert
stands speechless beauty
in the noise of bigot
like the island of hope
in the sea of despair
like the face of crescent
in the desert’s glare
When cloud sees her
with his heart
oh dear his decorum
just falls apart
but what a passing cloud
could possibly do
can’t soak the desert
even if he wishes to
few tears he can shed
words that give the shade
put little pause on her endless search
give touch that touches without touch
