Animated Absence


My hibernating heart, 
frozen in the arctic archive,
wakes up enlivened 
in the dulcet dawn,
the yearning brush soaks 
the sunburst colors,
paints a Monet garden 
of blooming lavender love,
unfurls the facsimile 
of your floral face, 
          adroitly appealing.

The luring luster 
of lilac rose petals 
lines your luscious lips,
quivering with the cadence 
of the dancing dew,
turning to diamond
for you.
Rhapsodic ripples 
in my mesmerized heart’s 
pictorial dunes
trail the mirage moments 
in dormant dream,
migrating in the deserted time, 
shimmering in euphoria, 
          endlessly enchanting. 

In the velvet vale 
of satin passon,
my fascinated mind 
fashioned by fervor,
carves a charming channel 
of longing to reach you.
The drifting ebony clouds 
of my desire 
come down in a torrent,
makes my melodic love 
a meandering river,
etching an exciting template,
the enticing design
          earnestly enthralling.

In my pensive pasture 
the panorama appears 
alluringly contrived, 
apparently alive
in the recess of sanguinity,
where I wait 
to take you 
to the valley of flowers, 
entrance you 
with my animated absence,
          eternally eluding.
