Her pretty face...
A lotus smiles
In the calm, tranquil lake

Comments on this Poem

Padmajaji, moon and lotus have been used as metaphor or simile in the context of a beautiful face (mostly of woman) from time immemorial. And yes, I am aware of the lyrics, particularly as the movie depicts the culture of the city I come from. Thank you.

Lovely! And this one too reminded me of the lyrics of "Choudhjavi ka Chand" - Chehra hai jaise jeel mein khilta hua kanwal..."
