Special appreciation

my dearest muse
who continues
to enthuse
Love’s Mysteries
you often ask
why I love you so
and then wonder
why I need you near
how to enlighten
mysteries of this emotion
when only God knows
all the right answers
I’d paint a picture
to make you see
I’d string meaningful words
to tell the story
of you and me

Season for Love
what season is this
when hearts bloom
like flowers in spring
how to spell
how to best express
this enthralling feeling
where magical essences surround
vibrant petals chorus
nature’s fragrances blend
and the river is on its way
to unite with glorious sea
all seem to be embraced with love

Think I’m in Love
why does my heart
beat more furious
like drums of war
whenever I see you
why does my blood
flow much faster
up to my head and all over
every time you’re near
whatever it is about you
I can’t stop thinking
till I find a way
or what I should say
I’m in such need
can’t wait to admit
I think I’m in love
it’s none other but you
how do I find out
if you love me too

A Sweet Trap
our eyes meet
across the space
my heartbeat
stumbles in its pace
your fixed gaze
truly profound
I’m left in daze
simply spellbound
undercurrent flows
oblivious to others
whole being aglow
in unrestrained ardour
two hearts wrapped
by unseen blanket
of a sweet love trap
as strong as a magnet

She Smiles
roses are red
violets are blue
not one I’ve met
as beautiful as you
the things I wish to say
could be just as easy
but we’ve passed the stage
