the wand wonder.

he came dancing,
his eyes sparkling,
he looked at me,
and stood still.

i wondered why
this sudden pause,
just then, he took
out his wand.

he tapped my head
with it,
and this time,
i stood still.

he looked into my eyes,
and they were shone
with nothing but
love.

silent messages, silent promises,
flashed in our eyes,
and the promises
did not fade,
it will never fade....

One of my secretdreams.

"beeep beep beep beep". I woke up, wondering who would've smsed at 2:45 am. i fliped my phone open, and my eyes read "one message recieved. Abi". i got up staright, rubbed my eyes properly, wondering if that was true. i read it again. in clear black bold fonts it was written" abi". i punched the 'open' key.
"hi madhu! how are you? how did prashantna's wedding go on? listen, tell amma to call me, i need some money to pay the mess fee. tell simi to keep the DHL bills safely. i'm in a job treat right now. the yearbook is coming out reallllly well! tc!~ gimme a call whenever possible".
i read it over and over again. hands trembling, i called him up. a chhery 'hello' answered my call and then zooooooom! we spoke and spoke and had a good long chat after a long long time. he told me that he had gone on a vacation far away and missed us a lot. he asked me how 10th was going on. gave me advices on math and all ;) and oh my! he was so damn excited about the yearbook!! i complimented him on his new display pic on orkut(the half sun glassed face).
after 20 minutes, i kept the phone.
happiness filled every cell of my body. tears welled up. i sat motionless. everything was finally back to normal. next week, he would be coming home. in a few months, he'll be off to New York. the puzzle was completed. it looked perfect- everything in it's place.
and then, one puissant sentence flashed in my mind, "abi is there".
yes, he is there-with me, with all of us.
he will be- "ALWAYS".

the past seemed like a nightmare.
and the present, seemed like nothing but a dream..
nothing but a dream.....
