Perception of Love

I walked in the wilderness of winter
Across the wasteland of despair
Reached  the sunshine shore of your heart
Lapped by the warm azure sea of fervor 
Descried the alluring pearly waves of longing 
Yearning to surf I waited for so long. 

That was where I discovered the niche of love 
Unveiled from the swathe of anonymity.

I followed the tantalizing silver track 
Draped by mesmeric moonshine 
Until the dreamy dawn blossomed 
On the sunburst hued horizon
The golden rays glinted the opalescent dew  
That shined in the meadow of your heart. 

That was when I found the flower of love 
Petals sparkling with shimmer sublime.

We walked together in the garden path 
You made me feel the ardent adoration 
Create timeless symphony of longing 
Echoing as fervent music in my heart
The melody resonated in my essence
With the rhythm of lingering emotion.

That was why I felt the sense of love 
Endure in the eternity with sanguinity.

Like an ebullient stream you cascaded 
In the landscape of my beguiled time 
Carried my dreams with the surge of lure
Through the valley of luxuriant liveliness
To lie fulfilled in the pristine bay of bliss 
Under the radiant seamless sky of belonging.

That was how I perceived the spirit of love 
Permeate the heart with adulating purity.
