A Smile In My Morning

A tease on the wings of summer's breeze
A tickle in the touch of whispering winds
A glimpse at the art of museum paintings
A stare in the eyes of flowering spring--

A poem is a song of my innermost feelings.

When I'm lost in confines of my thoughts
Solace I seek from brilliant cosmic stars
Prodding for answers to question marks
Uncovering truth in words of a paradox,

As the beat of poetry reignites my heart.

Verses I compose in fragrance of Jasmines
Linger merrily around blossoms of roses
Listening to voices of fluttering tree leaves
Soliciting rhymes from elate vocabulary,

Evoking the cadence of rhythmic melodies.

A giggle in a stream, a smile in my morning
A romantic kiss in the splendor of evening
An aesthetic dream in my night's revelry
A lonesome tear of my un-consoled grief--

My poetry's the answer to call of my musings.

"Verses I compose in fragrance of Jasmines. Linger merrily around blossoms of roses"- Vijay, your poetry has the sparkling white radiance and the invading fragrance of jasmine flowers. Also the sweetness and majesty of blossoming roses ! I inhale their fragrance and feast on their beauty till inebriated !
