Poem:-
‘The Golden Hush’
—————————–
Love came softly, like winter, sunlight resting gently on trembling hands—
A quiet warmth in the coldest season,
A golden hush across silver lands.
It feels like candles in darkened rooms, where shadows fade without a sound;
Like moonlight spilled on silent waters, where peace and promise both are found.
In the simple grace of holding hands,
In laughter shared beneath open skies,
In knowing glances, warm and wordless, Where truth in tender silence lies—
There blooms a garden time can’t wither, rooted deep where two hearts meet;
Each whispered hope, each fragile dream turns ordinary moments sweet.
Love is music no ear can measure,
A melody the soul understands;
It lingers in pauses between heartbeats,
Like fate written in unseen hands.
And when the world grows faint and distant,
When restless winds begin to roam,
Love remains—a steady lantern, forever guiding one heart home.
