In My Dream
In my dream…
In my dream, I can fly,
hug the moon kiss the sky.
I will drink, morning dew,
I get drunk, to get by.
In my dream, world is mine,
laugh, I’ll be, no more cry.
In my dream, I’ll see you,
cross my heart hope to die.
In my thoughts, kiss your lips,
till sunrise, I will try.
Every day, every night,
only us, you and I.
“Haloo” said, go and fly,
I will wait, don't know why.
6/24/20 Haloo
Note: This poem is the shortest form of "Ghazal" with 6 syllables in each line (it can vary from 6-24). The rhyming in Ghazal ends with AA bA cA dA eA etc. It comes in two different forms with and without refrain. This particular Ghazal is without refrain. In a ghazal, the poet usually places his/her alias in the last line and becomes a part of the poem. (Poetrysoup has a great explanation for this form of poetry).
