Nine Yards of Love ( Part One)


Listen Later

The earth is a place where myriad lovers come and leave their tales of love for their future generations to come and listen to. Each love story is different and intrigues, but the one element that remains the same is the longing for each other. Lovers unite and make the most beautiful moments of their lives. This poem which is written in three parts, the first part takes you to the magical tale of two earthly lovers. Set in a rural backdrop you will see a woman being coy, yet assertive in taking care of her lover’s need. Come let me take you to the world of Moina, a simple rural woman and her love tale in ‘Nine Yards of Love’.
