Falling In Love

Sweet-nothings of lover cooing like dove
A poem lovely as falling in love

A mating fervor of a smitten glance
An indulgence of impending romance

Invigorating sight of dazzled eyes
Unspoken dialogue passions surmise

Emboldening zeal of ecstatic dream
Strumming lyrical, mellifluous theme

Elixir of life cheering beguiled hearts
In blazing vibes enamored love imparts

Bowing to love as emotions cajole
Falling in love writes a poem of soul
