We all dream for our life partner . In Oriental societies ,where marriages are still a once in a life time event ; slowly the scenario is changing ,and following in the footsteps of Occidental culture.I was still unmarried in 1971 at 25 years , and trying to locate the face of my better-half , all the time , all the places and among all possible eligible young ladies.
............................................................................................................................................
In this crowded world,
I search for you.
In every feminine face, I search for you.
As the income-tax people ,search for black money,
in every film-stars house.
I search for you, among all potential candidates.
As customs people suspect smugglers,
in every tourist,
I search for you ,in every feminine face.
As a pick-pocket dreams of big catch,
in every victim,
I dream of you ,in every face.
As the 'adjutant ' looks out for the improperly dressed,
in every youngster,
I look out for you.
But alas ! in vain !
My thirst remains.
I still don't know you.
Who would be my co-traveller in my life.
