Love Poem: Mademoiselle

Mademoiselle

A cloudy summer evening 
Love stories just beginning
Feigning infatuations
Heart inflammations
Words stuck in throats 
Love letters on paper boats 
Reasonable not to fall 
Yearning eyes tell-all 
Touch beyond doubt a crime 
Thoughts of beloved sublime 
A clandestine tryst 
Too hard to resist 
Greeted by roses in a secret garden
Heavy downpours smudging 
Mascaras pardoned 
Vows to go the distance harden
Nightingale laments in the twilight 
Lovers dance to her tune all night 
Lilacs whisper
Let there be light! 
Dusky dawn brings a new era
Malalas' anointed with tiara
Pilgrims ringing their bells
Daisies bidding their farewells
Amorous letters do always tell
Forever yours mademoiselle
