Gauri Mittal
There was a love that came with a shout and a warning.
It flared up like a cracker,
Sending sparks flying,
Till the time it was all burnt out.
There was another that entered gently,
Relaxed, and spread inside the heart slowly,
Finding its place, as if it was home after a long time.
It warmed like a blanket on a cold night.
Its passionate roar never diminishing.
