This Magical Night

by Prasad Baadkar   Apr 21, 2008


Quietly in waiting for the sun to set in deep within dreams
So deep to where horizons touch the calm of the flowing breeze
Sky colors change from crimson to dark streaks
Birds blindly seeking their way back home.

Night unfolding itself so silently
All seems magical as the curtain of world keeps changing
First the moon is seen as a crescent at the distance rising so softly
One by one the whole galaxy of stars follow by.

Nothing can get better than this night coming awake
Beyond imagination tunes are heard in the air everywhere
At a hearable distance orchestration of someone playing sad strings
Bringing out in the audience feelings, some emotions some hidden tears.

Sitting peacefully, two souls holding on to each other
Mesmerized in silence of the night together
Closing eyes loosing themselves in stars
Being just each others listeners.

How can anyone sleep in the cold of this magical night?
Two old hands with spectacles knitting through the past
Teenagers dreaming of love & a future for themselves
Children anxiously listening to grandma's fairy tales.

Some lost in thoughts of themselves
Some souls missing out on lost ones
Hoping that this magic in the air will never end today
Hoping this night never ends or turns to another day.
