An Affair To Remember

Oh! It was a dark night; we were travelling towards vacation of relaxation,

I chattering in nonchalance and he driving in a focused manner,

The night did not let me ponder where we are?

It was just the stars, the moons, the graveled road and us,

Not once did I wonder, I could be in the big cats lair.

On the vast expanse of this universe,

We are just a tiny dot, leading towards an affair to remember,

In the mundane life chalked by the almighty for us,

Suddenly we saw God's most beautiful creation.

Maybe a dot in this vast universe, but certainly,

Too full to fill our eyes, ears and minds.

He came out the bushes, young and strong,

 The mane moving breezily in the summer night,

His face as big as the sun in its full flare, eyes sparkling sharp.

 Coming out of his regale Kingdom,

He crossed the street in a fleeting minute.

 I wondered what made him come by the so called civilized world.

But then another mystic image comported in front of my eyes,

She gracefully sashayed by our four wheels,

Unaware of the effect she trailed on her onlookers.

Moving her long tail like a champion acrobat,

 She jumped gracefully on a high rock and vanished from our sight.

Knowing surely he must be just behind.

Wow! What a night it was to witness

 The romantic dance of the king of the jungle.
