Love In The Valley Poem by Matloob Bokhari

LOVE IN THE VALLEY
In the valley of love
Days were full of spring flowers
Nights packed with incense burning tables
Tender girls, wearing royal and rich perfume
Were speaking honey-coloured words
All were laughing and drinking
Singing, dancing, embracing and kissing
Kissing - countless like the stars of night
Boys were wearing garlands of white violets
Girls were weaving necklaces of narcissus flowers
All had gone mad with the sting of love
Everyone was like an angel
Speaking sweetly, laughing attractively
With shinning faces and joyous hearts
Then I remembered
I loved you many times before,
Before coming here, we had promised
Our two hearts are one
Winter changes the trees
But our love will remain ever green
