Taking along with her the love of him, she slept . In dreams all she could see was him handsomely dressed. Her pain flew away, so were her stress Singing aloud with the waves of the ocean, she could see the stream and the water so deep Walking hand in hand, he caught her when the rocks made her slip, Fragrance of mother earth filled them with intense love The nature was in the best form like poetry So were them, caught in synergy of nature and melody
