The moon played peek a boo

With clouds

Changing colours

Silver white

Smoky gray

Intense red

She peeped , and she winked

And she cajoled

And called out

Irresistably.

Another time, I would have clicked her

From my phone camera

And sent you the pic

And You, would have clicked

More of her from your DSLR

Done some colour correction

Cropped the picture

Uploaded it

And then You and I

Would have indulged in some mooning…

But that was another time

Today I just stood at the window

Transfixed, staring at the moon

Till the Moon and I swallowed each other up.

Earlier in the day, I had spoken to him

He was on the train travelling in between cities.

On the video chat, i saw the mountains passing by

But we mostly looked at each other

Intensely.

And as I stare at the moon,

I wonder in passing..

Has he reached home yet…

Has the moon risen where he lives.
