Our Rainbow of Love

My love, do you ever know...

In your moments of hushed silence, 
I am your sound;

You are the rhythm
of the symphonic waves
in the vast sea 
of my romantic verses;

Jasmine blooms, fresh, I am
and you, the thread, 
together stringed, we become
fragrant garlands
that adorn and purify
our sacred sanctuary of love;

When you form the visible arc, 
I become the invisible arc
of our vibrant rainbow of love;

My love, don't you know...

You hold the key to my
Paradise of Love-
there, in a spot, so beautiful, 
I sit sprinkling my romantic ink, 
my heart beating fast
as I await your arrival, 
when thrush nightingales
sing ballads of love
and a soft zephyr 
tickles and whispers into my ears
that you are on your way
to meet me.

Come, my love, without further delay
forget all the petty tiffs we had and
unlock the door to my paradise. 
Hold me in your arms, so that
our eyes would meet
with gazes deep:
domes of black and white 
will then become verses of love

As I would read 
my own muses, so deep
in your eloquent eyes, 
and you, in mine, 
so magical and dreamy that moment be
when the wheel of time
would stop for some time

For us...

Just for us...
