STOLEN !!!

Stolen glances, hidden nuances
Moments of levity, of unforgettable brevity
Loved to be in each other’s solitude,
Uncomfortable in the multitude

Hesitant phrases of general talk
Awkward because of pregnant pauses
Secret glances at the clock
Wishing that time stood still for ages

Never wanted anything more
The feeling I used to ignore
Grew stronger inside me
I should have accepted it blindly

Some call it infatuation
Some call it just lust
Love just took time to awaken
This time around it’s honest.

wonderful piece... love unleashed ... lucky girl to capture your heart..

"Mirror mirror on the wall
Who in this land is luckiest of all?
You Manoj, are lucky; it's true
But the young woman in your poem
A thousand time luckier than you." :)

aiyo!!!!!!kavithai....kavithai....ayya shakespeare....DUDE!!!!!!!!!!! namma william ayya kitternthu namma palaya poem...unakaaga ellam unakaaga.....

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the Milky Way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced, but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A Poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed--and gazed--but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

- william wordsworth

True love comes just once in life time?
