DOWN THE LIFE-LANE


Walking down the Life-Lane
his arm around her
cracking sweet jokes
there were moments
she lapsed into memory lane.
Though he could read her
tormenting memories of unrequited love 
he never tried to compel her
to share with him her disturbing thoughts
instead took care to lift her from
her disturbing thoughts by
recalling some pleasant moments
both shared in the course of their honeymoon and after….
In the frozen silence of
thick darkness lying  glued to her
there were moments
he too lapsed into memory lane
while she was immersed
in pleasant, peaceful sleep
his mind often flew faraway
where his first love was lying nursing her sweet
moments with him in his mid twenties…..
turning his eyes moist.
