Sun and Moon

by Bhaskaranand Jha Bhaskar

The sun kisses the beams

In the courtyard

And climbs up the top roof to atone

For his act of love

And of passion

Or one time (mis)deed?

Almost hidden

From the vigilant eyes of the day

The moon seems to carry

On her fair face

The love-bites stamped

A dark spot?

Robbed of her love 'n' dreams

She curses her lot

Sobbing behind the veil of the night

While he writhes in pain

From dawn to dusk

Burning in another 'fire' within.
