I should have liked to talk with such a mystic. Marriage to me is a relationship of equals.My wife and I are both writers and allow each other space to do as we wish when we wish.She too is a night bird whilst I am at my best in the mornings. It works for us love is accepting ones partner as she or he is without seeking to change

Absolutey beautiful. Brought out vividly the unique relationship bw Amrita and Imroz which is perhaps an example of the selfless heights that love can achieve. A perfect 10

In this beautiful memorable write, Mamta, you have preserved some timeless moments you spent in the company of Imroz. Amrita and Imroz are equally well known in Pakistan. Even a few weeks ago I read a detailed interview of Imroz in a Pakistani Urdu literary magazine 'Symbol'. One of Amrita's Punjabi poems, which she wrote after partition of the sub-continent, was so famous in Pakistan that almost every Pakistani of my generation memorized it. I remember this poem was sung for a very popular movie 'Kartar Singh' based on the partition. I never met Amrita but she was on honorary mailing list of 'Tasteer', a literary magazine I edited for several years. She was not well at that time and I don't think she remembered anything about 'Tasteer'. However she was a good friend of one of my friends Mazhar-ul-Islam, a famous storywriter. I don't know whether or not we can call Imroz a Sufi but Amrita and Imroz both are symbol of love and mutual respect in the literary worlds on both sides of the border. At her death several Pakistani journals and magazines published special editions dedicated to Amrita, still a lot of work on her is being published. It may be known to you that Sarojini Naidu was another prominent Indian poetess before Amrita. Regards Naseer

A tribute of breathtaking beauty. True love always is-it knows no barriers of time or distance.10/10 Love, SandraX

A great tribute to true lovers. Beautifully written. Vanita.

A wonderful tribute! Works of such great authors and writers should be made known to the world! This materialistic and competitive world, which hardly provide time to sit, ponder or think, and therby making people to ignore, in their efforts to catch up with the Joneses next door! ! Thanks once more! -Raj

Mamtaji, you sing so well of the Sufi fowl Two sweet pilgrims of the soul. CP

most of us tend to speak of those living too in past tense, don't we? there lies the difference...

yes yes yes Mamtaji! You hav done it! I am spellbound! some words chosen very beautiful! And love! Oh love! Truely said- 'He said their were no laws In their relationship- laws Are for the irresponsible. We gave each other space And moved at our own pace.' For some people no need law! they are endowed with classic conscience! Hats off to you dear! 10101010101010+
