Valentine's day.


It is such a big deal. Here in India, now-a-days. An effort of the gift shop owners, Archies, Hallmark etc? Also cashed upon now by the others, titan, kwality walls, cafe coffee day, travel houses et al?
But what does it mean really? If it does, anything, at all.

together we spend an evening
continued into the morning

tidy the house
fill up the vases
chrysanthemums lilies roses
held together with laces

polish the crystal
set the table
put on the music
let's twist and turn to
the drums, guitar and cymbal

the room's aglow
with lights from the street
the stars and moon
that play hide-n-seek

it's pure magic
with wishes that it doesn't end
yet with promises galore
let the night and morning blend

this is what i like
about days that are valentine's
but then, is this not
what we like
for even the days
that are not valentine's? :)
