They say that rainbow lasts for a few minutes. But formed in heart, it lasts for ever.


A Rainbow Of Happiness Binds Us

A flower beside the hills
Asked me, `what be the reason
Why a fountain of happiness
Leaping from your bossom and
Is flowing in your face?

I looked at the sky to find the
Mild sun behind dark clouds
And a snowful breeze.
A rainbow leaping from
One place and falling at other.
Difficult to detect from where
Raising and where falling.
Appears as if raises from
Both sides and falling at both sides.

A similar rainbow is flowing
From my bosom and falling
Somewhere, while it is also
Flowing from somewhere
And falling in me!

I told the hilly flower,
`There is a person at the other end
of my bosom's rainbow
And the fountain of happiness
Is flowing from her also
And is flowing in her face'.

I love the idea of this talking rainbow. It is only a poet who can speak to rainbows and understand their majestic silent beauty. Rainbow, Raghav is a symbol of hope. It appears after a rain in the clear skies. Your poem hopes for love.

Dear raghava,

I can feel your rainbow; thats the magic with poetry. when you and me on the same pulse rate we can travel through its bend and can smell the sky.
