What is love?

I was very clear in mind
So did not pursue much to find
The exact nature and feeling behind
Lick too was favorable and very kind

I was not in hurry
Was not at all engulfed with the worry
I knew its importance and never felt sorry
It was not worth at this stage to think and carry

I was single so far and had kept good distance
I could have fallen in love at once
It was creating some sensation in body
I had thought over it and kept it as concern of nobody

Every individual is gifted with strong will power
It might be enjoyed or exercised by only fewer
I had given less importance and placed it in lower category
It was causing me no concern or occupying the memory

I had analytical data of would be choice
I never wanted to make any type of noise
I had planned it to go in natural way
It had equal importance for legitimate say

When I met her first time at some meeting?
She had shown keen interest in greeting
It was first pulse from that direction which directly struck
I had to bow down silently and duck

She had powerfully hit me with her missile
It was magnetic pull with magic smile
I lost complete balance of mind for a while
She had left last impression with elegant style

The nature has balanced between pull and push
Any one out of them may make first rush
It may be first contact with little shyness
One may frankly admit it as quite openness

It is good and welcome gesture
As it paves for bright and possible future
Not only preference is given for strong alliance
But serious thought over matter at once

I do not want to leave it to the fate
As I am going to be very late
If she changes her mind at last minute
I may not have enough time to observe it minutely

Now I ha e come to know what the love can be called
The natural appeal or move can not be stalled
It has to be given equal response with respect
As it may near end to the final act

I am not dragging the feet
She is passionately trying to meet
I know it will be expected at an early stage
I will simply hold the urge and definitely manage
