they recognized star blade jasmines,
each other’s ears to hear
the daylight join nighttime
both waiting for completion
they wished to be
lovers in the night,
Nargis and her Raj,
tenderly yet tragically,
no others to long for
Neha and the poet
jasmines at night,
unfolding to the moon
dancing with the Sun:
daylight Neha
your poem has come,
daylight Neha
your poet has come
