Arabesque Whispers

Arabesque Whispers To a flower You are the fragrance And for poetry You are the refrain Something left from a dream Has taken time in place And the Now is only your face like a sea before my eyes Your beauty overflowed my thoughts** And wrecked my sails And then, i look at you. Big dark eyes, from Arabian Nights Serenading Muashahat of halcyon glories knights and queens' love adventures Love and sacrifice, and still your eyes hold undeciphered charms, that I have yet to decode.. Every spot , every speck is a whole in all its integrity Your arched eyebrows have traced.a perfect bow And trimmed it with a painstaking care, and genius hands No wisp of hair was left out of the range. was left out at random hands to alter its beauty.. And the black hair that droops loosely Upon your shoulders And down to your hips where it lands gently in warm lap,'' i just imagine It with a wish this might happen...''. Lines like an intricate Arabesque of a human design intertwined fibers not tangled in chaotic hustle or weaved with awkward beginners. Classy and tactfully polished...... Then you smile with lips lightly pressed A mildly stressed corner of the thin sweet lips Shyly giving a hint of discretion A sign of reserve and self-containment. It's what makes the beholder get willing For a curious inspection, and poetic research.. You look heavenly serene and blissfully Zen No care, no stress ever can a poet discern in all your lines You gently wave like the ebb and flow Of a Summer calm sea,, At even's quiet moments. you take my eyes Silently, as i sink blindly in your deep
