It’s sound of splashing water,
comes from d’ swimming pool
evidently a midnight mischief,
defies all norms, not sensible
Occurs every night as a routine,
the sound growing in intensity
each passing day wades deeper,
tears in to the water’s density
First few days I had ignored it,
from d’ bed now I stepped out
took lift to d’ swimming pool
for vivid check, to clear doubt
Couldn’t find any one there,
got back from the futile trip
tossed & turned a bit in bed,
lastly managed to fall asleep
My passion worked overtime,
to plan and erect d’ building
basement a decent parking lot,
1st floor guest room, drawing
2nd floor an ornate bed room,
3rd a pool as per her choice
a home theatre on 4rth floor,
with relaxing seats to rejoice
An exciting mini bar on attic,
a gym, solar panels on d’ top
water harvested is put to use,
for the swimming pool set up
Open space is for roof top party,
often to entertain a close friend
all done to fulfil my wife’s wish,
insisted to add pool in the end
Included it in d’ house complex,
I am passionate, love her much
adore d’ fetching face, blue eyes,
wavy lustrous hair, sharp nose
My emerald, my precious stuff,
went missing six months back
I recall the time spent with her,
her whereabouts, cops clueless
Happy couple, in elegant house,
how not immune to such disaster
multiple questions put to me by
family, friends unable to answer
Wakes me up early in d’ morning,
wilfully bangs pillow on my face
I grab her hand and pull her down,
I’m half awake, she half undressed
Finish breakfast, step out to pool,
for a pleasing swim, to enjoy life
finds her way around in pool but
no natural swimmer my dear wife
Looks lovely in swimming suits,
I love oft to play tricks with her
pull legs from below the water,
she splashes and gets too scared
Often we go for midnight swim,
last time I was in a fete of anger
assured amount never received,
mid night swim paid no pleasure
Gripped her legs from underneath,
pulled her down applied force rigid
held her head below d’ water level
fought for a while, turned flaccid
Pulled her out in drenched attire
dragged up to d’ attic cup board
dumped her body, sealed d’ wall
I truly love her, it’s never absurd
Watched the waters for a while,
the pool was quiet, undisturbed
I got up, shrugged my shoulders
to go back to my room, I turned
Again a harsh splashing sound,
for a while my heart beat halted
could see an out stretched arm,
to reach me frantically extended
Grabbed me by neck, dragged me
to depths of unruffled pool water
none to witness d’ horrific crime,
my asset, d’ only silent onlooker
Felt chocked, fought for breath,
things turned hazy, fully unclear
lush mansion started crumbling
my possessiveness did disappear
