A Nocturne Of Love And Poetry (Sonnet) Poem by Dipankar Sadhukhan

One hushèd night upon my moonlit bed,
A tender thought of love awoke my soul.
To verse I turned, by star-born muses led,
As silver joy across my spirit stole.

Through open casement, skyward rose my gaze,
Where Luna bathed the world in hallowed light,
And lo! I saw thee, veiled in dreamlike haze—
A sylph that soared upon the wings of night.

On wings of poesy I flew to thee,
And traced with thee the constellated dome.
The moon, in envy, watched our ecstasy,
And sighed for love within her starry home.

Then home I came, with rapture brimming o'er,
To write our love in verse—forevermore.
