Shivering, on a scorching hot day, I was sitting in the AC coach of my train,
Covering myself with a blanket and simply waiting for cups of tea, my ultimate respite.
Far off from the maddening crowd of cities, the train halted near a forest.
I saw outside my window, a couple, sweating and toiling hard in the sun
The lady took water from her bottle, I know naught if it was hot or cold
But her eyes were evident that the thirst was quenched.
Though they were very near to me, but the distance between us was enormous.
I was looking for some shield to block the ingress of the chilling air
And they were relying on a white cloth to impede the sultry waves.
Oblivious of my existence, they were gazing at my coach
While I was envisaging the distant dreams of those brimming eyes.
As the train gained momentum, the eyes also moved on till the train and the couple were out of vision
