The Lady with The Mask

By Arjun Dahal

Down on the Nepal Yatayat, from Koteshwor to Kamaladi, A lady peeked into my bus, and pretending to be unknown, looking like to the sideways, starred at me. Those eyes, I had seen somewhere, for my weak eyes, except for some exceptions, seldom lies, And the lightning smile and hidden laughter, Shrouded by the doctor's mask, I guess she lost her freedom to laugh insanely, for an infamously famous person doesn't need to crack jokes. Sorry lady, but a writer must publish his work, And Nevertheless of your shyness, Thanks for igniting my poetry back.
