1hr15mnts

1hr 15mnts in Sealdah
---------------------------------

An idyllic sun, a beaming man
a lady by the side , the low ebbs has suddenly turned into a full tide.
Its time for the knight to be in shining armor,
to kill the time with lots of humor.
Every silence is broken by a shrill whistle
Descending from the train steps a million men,women in all shapes, creating flutter and bustle.
Every face has a story to tell,
this short stout guy ignores them all
The million faces around seems to him like the spring is over,here comes the fall.
The lady in the midst of a platform is all ears,
she wants to hear her man , the man for her life who is supposed to have conquered all fears.
A middle aged lady in a modest face walks by ,
She sits beside understands the quandary of romance
A smile lits up, and some bright tears !!
The beggar in her wonder what to beg,
A whisper in the teeming millions ,
sounds like the silence of the lambs,
& the cry for help dies an untimely death by the platform shade!!.
Happiness can u behold ,
with flowers and chocolate she behold,
Time soon seems to be coming to an end,
The two birds who seemingly talked wondered when will this time again God send ?

Written on a true life story ... a friend of mine who went on a date with his fiancee in Sealdah railway station!! .
