National Poetry Month
The sparkling dawn lights up my onyx heart,
spreads the sunburst spectrum of yearning
in the fervent garden of feeling, blooming with my love,
designs the facsimile of your florid face.
In the lush valley of my mind contoured by desire,
I carve the channel of craving to reach you.
The fervid cloud of passion melts in tuneful torrent,
making my buoyant love a cascading river, I swim.
Wafting with the current of your charming allure,
my emotions soar high in your moonlit satin sky,
where my love weaves the enticing lattice of stars,
I gaze mesmerized with my sequined vision.
When my garden is drenched by the eventide hue,
I see your beauty blossom in my amorous arms.
The sapphire patina of the unfurling iris buds
glistens in your eyes with the lilting luster of love.
The drops of joyful tears in the corner of your eyes
gleam like the lucent pearls of shimmering dew,
reflect the radiant flicker of yearning of my heart,
the senses take me to the edge of the eclipsed time.
In midsummer mystique night of fantasy, I take you
through the moondust mist to the shining seashore.
As my heart pulsates with the rhythm of cobalt waves,
I place in your tender arms a bouquet and an entranced me.
With the melody of the whistling flute of beguiled breeze,
and the mesmeric music of the rolling waves of desire,
I compose the lyrics of my love that resonates for you
the rhapsody of longing, configuring my dreams in your eyes.
