Beauty In a Summer Breeze

Swallowed in dreams of bliss
sunsets, berry kisses
endless, silk spread skies
ignites still visions.

The strands of your tresses
flow like henna falls 
tingling, sweet caresses  
burning ember walls.

Your lips, like honey
exude sweetness
as a dream lover's dream
I fall resistless.   

Soft whispers pant to find your ear
delicate, drifting, lingering near;
speechless, like crafts of gold lines
silver moon, rise!

Trapped within a muse,
conversing- secrets stolen.
Water blue rain drops 
on your form in the open.  

Every thought becomes a stage
thinking of your face
your movements sequences
with every pace.  

I saw you last in May
though every day
the outfits you wore,
mesmerized, I need you more. 

Beauty within your eyes
sweetly defies
eludes my mind
like visions in a summer breeze-
my heart rises.

I would steal polyanthus,
and lay beds of jasmine
on wings of passion,
my strong attraction;

if to allure you,
come and see
I want to liberate your heart,
and each vacant need.   

I search the depths of you,
like oceans, emotions whirl
shades of affection
as souls fly, my essence-

entwined within your style
sapphires at your feet
sweet smile, Nerfertiti, mine
her eyelids on streams.  
 
Chiaroscuro, form, light
like poetic lines
your shadow in the haze
pantomime in lies. 

Her finger tips drip elegance
in the moonlight mist
every inch of her hips 
like jewels of skies aglint. 

She is delicate as a lily,
flawless as a pearl 
in sea blue threads of tapestry 
which colors my world.
