A Royal Escape

A royal escape with some happy laughter
And sometimes some happy tears …
Together with you only I’ll go to such escape
Again and again, now and always
And throughout all the coming years of any age …

Together we’ll visit
The Louvre Museum to see Mona Lisa
To see her mysterious beauty
Her smile is a mirror of me and
Like me, the curve of her lips speak wisely …
Her eyes have an unspoken love, dear
What would she say if she could speak?
Darling, if you want to know
Then ask me only …..

By the flowing Blue Nile
We’ll thread a dream strong
The mightier streams will pass it
To other mightier throng …
We’ll also keep the magic of love
By the brilliance shades of Pyramids
See, the beautiful Giza is near
They say, it’s west of the Nile clear …
Will we see Sphinx, Pharaoh’s face?
We’ll discover the mysteries of that phase
Together

The moon shines brightly upon the Great Wall
It’s lying like a great dragon along the sky
Three thousand years of wind and rain come by
It’s path is natural, strong and magnificent, just like you
It’s a long journey on the Great Wall
And I’ll be close to you, talking and walking about too …

Let’s get an appointment at the Eiffel Tower
As in the ‘Sleepless in Seattle’,
You may love it’s rooftop,
High, high, very high ….
Together from there
We’ll make our journey and we’ll fly
Screaming to the world, ‘Goodbye’ ….

Taj Mahal, no doubt, we’ll see
It’s a sign of eternal love
The gardens, the palace
The embroidered doors, walls and marbles
In all its beauty, a wondrous splendour …
But it brightens no brighter, darling
As it brightens in your heart’s core ….

We may dive in the Pacific Ocean
Its waves are like lustrous strands
Inviting us to light the deep with our love …
We may sit by it’s beach
And listen to the calling of the sea-gulls
We’ll find rocks and shells
We’ll walk hand in hand
Enjoying the ocean’s smell …

It would be excellent
To walk a Hollywood Fame …
You and me will act the roll
As they act in ‘You’ve got Mail’
I’m sure we’ll achieve a glamorous name …

Live orchestra of ‘Love-story’
In Italy, will be a joyful sight
The every thought, the music says
It says of the wish of a beautiful night …

We’ll ride a New York subway
We’ll play hide and seek
Station after station
We’ll laugh and not fray
Our laughter will keep the wind
Soothing
For others to breathe more and to pray …

Sweetheart, we’ll plant our flowers
We’ll see the blue open sky
We’ll see watch stars at night
And we’ll do something different everyday
To be kinder and to be more bright
We’ll feed a hungry child
With one word of gentle love
With one look more smiling to him
It’s a divine pleasure
It’s never a charity to any other
But to ourselves darling,
It’ll build our truthful insight, undoubtedly …

A Royal Escape of such happy laughter
With some happy tears is a pleasure …
As we grow together, with smiles
I’ll be escaping with only you
To many phases and places
Again and again, now and always
And through out all the coming years of any age …

It’s my personal favourite with some error, here and there. And I know it’s a bit long than my usual ones, but I love this long poem and I hope you would love it too to read it all ….

And here I mentioned about Taj Mahal ….
Don’t know why I didn’t mention Pahalgam or the BETAAB Valley … Kashmir is my recent favourite place, absolutely, say like forever ♾️ 🥰

So should I include the place in this Royal Escape? Tell me ….

And tell me also where would you escape if there’s any chance of you being able to take such escape …

    1. Thank you Devang.
      I loved writing this one ….

      Okay, in shaAllah I’ll let you know. Then if we go to Agra, we may plan for Udaipur as well. Let’s see how it goes with the plan ….

      Actually, I did visit Taj Mahal when I was a teenager. I was in my eighth grade. But I do wish to visit Taj once again. Actually I wanted to visit the place with my husband for many years now. It didn’t happen yet. In shaAllah we may visit when we’ll become grandparents
      😀

      How are you and family?

      Keep us in your prayers.

      Jummah Mubarak
      ✨🤲♥️

      1. Ha ha
        I came to Taj Mahal when you were a toddler, I think 🤔

        I’m already a happy and proud grandparent to my niece and nephew’s children. I pray and hope to become grandparent to my children someday soon, inshaAllah

      2. Yes. A very happy granny 👵
        Well, I’m in my 40s and I never stop feeling like I’m in my 20s living my best lives Now and Here. I think it’s in my gene from my dear granny also. She was so courageous woman, a wonderful caring mother, a solo traveller and always doing something special for her family and community. But yes, I do agree with the idea of aging gracefully. It’s a wonderful way to romanticising my life for better as I’m aging fast and fabulous.
        Alhamdulillah

        Thank you Devang for your words and prayers.

        How’s the preparation going on for puja in your part of the city?

  1. This poetic journey through various enchanting destinations is a delightful read. Your words paint vivid pictures of each place, and the theme of love and togetherness shines through beautifully. It’s a heartfelt and imaginative piece that makes one dream of far-off places and the joy of experiencing them with a loved one. Wonderful work!
