The night when the moon felt the fullest

A Poem by KuhuNagpal

A heartfelt one, so dreamy and divine.

•The night when the
Moon felt the fullest

I
Silky dress; beyond the knees it never went.
The Back, beautiful like prison bars.
Color; the prettiest hue of pink,
Wouldn't they want to go and hide their faces?
The stars?
Hair;
Lovingly laid
With pins at random places
In a splendid side braid.
A fine flower
Put up just to the right of the fascinating forehead,
Like it was made, petal by petal
By the sweet God himself.
Feet
Tied in a delicate golden pair of slippers
Nails painted with
The remains of hibiscus.
She was looking just like a lustrous fairy;
Like she just landed on Earth.

II
Stature sublime
In no time
He is just as ready.
In his resplendent
Coat and pant
As black as the crow's beak.
Shirt;
As white as a statue Greek.
With an ideal silk tie
A clean shaven jawline
Fairly Indescribable.
Hair, just so refined
Every feature
Neatly alined.
To tie his shoelaces
As he bent
Now he was complete and confident.

III
She was waiting in the balcony
Anticipating him.
Angelic as the night was
She saw a shooting star
And made her best wish
As he took out his car.
He drove,
So dreamy;
And delightfully.
Ardent as the night was
He saw the fullest moon of his life,
And filled himself with her thoughts.
He suddenly stopped on the way
And bought a beauteous bouquet;
With flowers of all kinds and sorts.
As he knew not which one to choose.
Which one would be prettier than her, none- he thought.
Soon she encountered his sight
Her eyes never shined so bright.
He stopped and got out of his car
And waved a handsome hand at her;
Pulchritudinous was his plight.
And hers was no less.
She ran downstairs at once
Ravished was her restlessness.

IV He showed her his classy smile
And she,
Her shy one.
A thousand stars
Born in that moment
Brightest that night the Moon had shun.
He took her delicate hand
Delicate like a tendril.
And Lead her to the passenger seat; opening for her that door.
She took her seat
She was fascinated inside out.
Her excitement
Never could she beat.
She didn't want to either.

V
He started the car
They started off,
She didn't know where to.
He caught her staring stunningly at him
He held his grand gaze right there
She smiled and looked away.
His plight so indescribable
He could fall down to his knees
He could do anything,
Be it turning jade a sard.
He knew for sure
He was falling for her
Falling rather hard.
She too was feeling exquisite
Her reluctant nature not at guard.

VI
She did not ask him where they were going
And she was rather surprised
Her pupils dilated and her eyes opened wide
She did not regret not asking him
As the place was more than just right.
She looked left, right and around
It was all dark
But safe and sound.
She looked down
There was a never ending extent of green.
Finally she looked up
And she could see infinite stars
And less of the sky;
She was melted
Mesmerized
And never felt so elegant
And Divine
And as special as the best painter's masterpiece.
She cried,
Cried hard
For she was overwhelmed
Her feelings were taken care of
And her emotions held.

VII
He couldn't stand that sight
The sight of her crying
He carefully wiped her tears away
With his hands divine.
He took her into his huge and comfortable arms
She rested;
Refined in them.
Closed her eyes tight
And of this enticing moment
She took a bite.
Her fingers entwined in his hair
He held her close
And closer.
Closer than his own soul
Like he would never, ever let her go.
Time stopped
So did every clock
For their love so charming.
She was his little baby
And he was her darling.
With all emotions at flow
He let it all go
And admitted to her-
"I love you."
She said obliviously
Like now was the time she didn't have to hold back anymore;
All the feelings her heart bore-
"Of course, I love you too;
Love you to the core
Love you allure".
