Arabesque Whispers
Arabesque Whispers
To a flower
You are the fragrance
And for poetry
You are the refrain
Something left from a dream
Has taken time in place
And the Now is only your face
like a sea before my eyes
Your beauty overflowed my thoughts**
And wrecked my sails
And then, i look at you.
Big dark eyes, from Arabian Nights
Serenading Muashahat of halcyon glories
knights and queens' love adventures
Love and sacrifice, and still your eyes
hold undeciphered charms, that
I have yet to decode..
Every spot , every speck is a whole in all its integrity
Your arched eyebrows have traced.a perfect bow
And trimmed it with a painstaking care, and genius hands
No wisp of hair was left out of the range.
was left out at random hands to alter its beauty..
And the black hair that droops loosely
Upon your shoulders
And down to your hips where
it lands gently in warm lap,'' i just imagine
It with a wish this might happen...''.
Lines like an intricate Arabesque of a human design
intertwined fibers not tangled in chaotic hustle
or weaved with awkward beginners.
Classy and tactfully polished......
Then you smile with lips lightly pressed
A mildly stressed corner of the thin sweet lips
Shyly giving a hint of discretion
A sign of reserve and self-containment.
It's what makes the beholder get willing
For a curious inspection, and poetic research..
You look heavenly serene and blissfully Zen
No care, no stress ever can a poet discern in all your lines
You gently wave like the ebb and flow
Of a Summer calm sea,,
At even's quiet moments. you take my eyes
Silently, as i sink blindly in your deep
