The Picture Of Love

Last night
On the way to bed
I looked at the picture on the wall
Was greeted by the satisfaction in your eyes
And arrested by the redeeming contours of your smile
And desire summoned me to your side
This morning
As you slept by my side
I stole a glance at the picture on the bed
The way you like to curl up beside me
Even in prosaic sleep you exude angelic charm and grace
Engraving the picture of contentment upon my heart
Thanks for the picture of love
Your love

Enigmatic Persona

Here is what I dearly wish I could clone of her for eternity:
that love so raw, so pure, so secure
that smile so calming, so disarming, so embalming
that attitude so embracing, so enchanting, so captivating
that friendship so genuine, so courteous, so precious
that touch so serene, so flitting, so paralysing
those eyes so gracious, so revealing, so teasing
those lips so intense, so provocative, so seductive.
To you who is so addictive, so enigmatic, so magnetic
Let us frame the moments and seasons for times yet to come.
