Compose
Night lifted the ebony shroud
from the hazy sky draped in cloud,
the ascent of dawn had begun
with the rise of shimmering sun,
golden shower drizzled with flair,
spreading crimson hue in the air,
radiance lighted the meadow
where the pearls of dew I saw glow.
Reflected flicker flushed my face,
my mind was filled with divine grace,
stream of my love started to spurt
as unbound flood within your heart,
cascade of enticing color
enwrapped you with fervent glamour,
like a flower abloom in spring
you gleamed with the tinge of yearning.
Beyond the calm edge of twilight,
moonbeam splash of mesmeric night
sprinkled silver tinsels on me,
my lured muse soared in reverie
on wings of rhythmic breeze to fly
beguiled in your star-studded sky,
with longing sheen flashing anew,
I composed a lyric for you.
