Radha and Krishna – the eternal romance

posted on December 7, 2013

Radha and Krishna sit together in the forest, making sweet small talk. The trees, creepers and deer are all around. It’s beautiful.

A dancer and I sat together on a small wooden table, getting into the mood of the moment. Dancers surrounded us, creating the atmosphere of trees, creepers and deer. A peacock was supposed to enter the scene and my teacher was choreographing that sequence.
‘Radha’ and I, sitting together, continued what we were supposed to do. A tree and creeper decided to take a break and watch us instead.

I didn’t notice them looking.

‘Radha’ lowered her eyes, smiling shyly. “My lens is blurred,” she muttered.

I smiled back, watching her face. “I know. Mine too. Been wearing lenses all day.”

We became conscious of the others looking at us.

“Y’all look so good together!” exclaimed the ‘Creeper’.

‘Radha’ and I revealed the romantic conversation that we had just shared in that magical moment that had impressed the others so much.
